Sonia Rosa Del Campo

Sonia Rosa del Campo, age 87, of Orlando, Florida passed away on Monday, June 1, 2020 at her home in Orlando.

Sonia was born on May 9, 1933 in Santiago, Oriente, Cuba, daughter to late parents Manuel Marcial Gutierrez Gonzalez and Felicita Matos Rondon. On September 30, 1956, she married Raul del Campo, to whom she was married to for 62 years until his passing in 2018. Together they emigrated to the United States and settled in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1958. Sonia went to work for Remington shavers, and later for Dayron Corporation in Orlando as a fuse manufacturer after moving to Orlando in August 1973. She was an avid gardener and had a passion for cooking. Sonia would always say, "My food tastes so good because it was made with love." Her true passion was her family. Sonia loved spending time with them, and could never see them enough.
