Verona –

Sofia Helena Luna, age 12, passed away after a 6 month fight with cancer. Her struggle ended on July 25, 2016 at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego with her family at her side. She was born May 23, 2004 in Madison, the daughter of Antonio and Jenny (Aspero) Luna. She attended Savannah Oaks Middle School in Fitchburg.

If you met Sofia you instantly loved her. Her beautiful smile, laugh, and genuine love for everyone are just a small part of what made Sofia so special. She loved to dance, cook, craft, talk with her friends, and was the best big sister her younger brother could ever ask for. She enjoyed helping others and had a passion for her community.

Sofia is survived by her parents, Antonio and Jenny; two brothers, Diego and Yovani at home; grandparents, Nick and Polly Aspero, Rafael Luna and Carmen Castro; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and extended family.

The family extends their gratitude to the community, friends and family for all of their support during her illness. They draw comfort in knowing how loved and supported she was by all.
