Regina M. Sudia, age 86, obtained her angel wings on January 16, 2018.
Born in Latrobe, Pa., she graduated from Latrobe High School. Regina lived in the Akron area most of her life, and retired from The University of Akron Law Library. She was a longtime member of St. Nicholas Orthodox Church. Regina enjoyed cooking and baking, and never saw a recipe she couldn’t improve.

The family would also like to thank the nursing staff in the ICU at Summa Akron City Hospital, Father Theoklitos-Victor for his visit and prayers, and The V. Rev. Father John Mason for his support to our family.
