Zofia "Sophie" Mateja
September 22, 1934 - July 19, 2020
Zofia “ Sophie” Mateja peacefully entered into eternal life on Sunday morning at her home, after a long struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. She was married to Florian, the love of her life for 62 years. She was dearly loved and will be deeply missed by her daughter, Susan and her son-in-law Curtis Carlson. Sophie was predeceased by her parents, Franciszek and Bronislawa Brzozowska, three sisters and two brothers and is survived by her dear sister, Teresa (late Frank) Lieske . She will be remembered by her godchildren and many nieces and nephews. Now at peace in God’s arms, may her pure and gentle soul Rest in heaven. In lieu of flowers, the family request any generosity in Sophie’s memory be sent to the Alzeheimer’s Association, 225 N. Michigan Ave., Fl. 17, Chicago, IL 60601. Please consider sending a note or card to Florian, to help him get through this difficult time. A celebration of Sophie’s life will be scheduled in September around the time of her birthday.
