Sophia A. Mulcahy

Sophia A. Mulcahy, 88, of Danvers, died peacefully Wednesday, July 22, 2015, at the Cape Cod Hospital surrounded by her family, whom she loved and adored. She was the loving wife of the late Charles P. Mulcahy with whom she shared 58 years of marriage. Born in Lowell on January 25, 1927, she was the daughter of the late Savas and Stella Siakallis. Sophie was a graduate of Peabody High School and later attended the Burdett Secretarial School. She began her career at United Shoe in Beverly and later managed the book store at Salem State University. She transitioned to the Holten Richmond Jr. High School and finished her career at Parker Brothers as an accountant. Sophie resided in Danvers for the past 66 years. She and her husband were avid jazz enthusiasts and enjoyed spending time at their summer residence on Cape Cod (in her words….God’s country). Sophie was quite the socialite with many caring friends throughout New England and Florida. Surviving her are her beloved children, Janis Clifford and her husband Tim of Danvers, Debbie Mulcahy of San Diego, and Lois Mulcahy of Los Angeles along with her grandchildren, Katie and her husband T.J. Baril of Danvers, and Beth Clifford of South Boston. She is also survived by her great grandchildren, Avery and Emerson Baril and by her sister, Evangeline Siakallis of Peabody.
