Sonia Figueroa, age 60, the beloved daughter of Felix Alicea and Virginia Marin, born in Manati, Puerto Rico, suddenly passed into the peaceful yet Glorious rest of the Lord on October 24, 2019 in Bridgeport Hospital, Bridgeport, CT; Sonia moved to Bridgeport many years ago and has resided here since where she along with her spouse the late Julio Sanchez had resided for many years. Sonia was a vibrant woman who lived for her children and grandchildren and focused every bit of her energy into living for them and loving them. Words could never explain how unexpected her departure was and how they feel because the chance to say goodbye was never the option, but they trust in God's everlasting love, His mercies, and His tenderness which they know embraced her, took her by her hand and immediately overcame her entirety with the peace and tenderness only He knows how to provide. Until we meet again, way beyond the skies
