Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Sophy Richmond Church Hansen passed away on May 12, 2020. She was 98.
Sophy was an elementary school teacher in the Salmond and Cedar Schools in
Hanover.
Sophy had written out what psalms and hymns she wanted for her funeral at
her beloved St. Andrews Church. She had seen her twin sister’s Frances’
funeral at St. Andrews seven years before. The church was full. But in May
of 2020, there could be no funeral for Sophy due to the Covid pandemic
restrictions. As those who buried loved ones during the pandemic will
remember, there was only a small graveside ceremony only 10 people could
attend, masked, and 10 feet apart.
Hanover and Sophy’s family will finally have a memorial service for Sophy,
at the St. Andrews Church she loved, on Sunday, June 2, at 11:00 a.m.
Sophy’s chosen “Amazing Grace” will finally be played in her honor.
After the service, there will be a dedication of a daffodil garden in St.
Andrews yard, to Sophy and her twin sister, Frances. For more information,
please contact Deborah Hansen Hollenberg at deborah.hollenberg@gmail.com .
