Sophia Marie Douglas

Cambridge

Sophia Marie Douglas, age 12, of Cambridge, Iowa, passed away on August 21, 2025. She was born on June 28, 2013, in Des Moines, Iowa, to Krista and Dennis Douglas.

Sophia was a bright light in the lives of everyone who knew her. She attended the Ballard School District in Huxley, where she enjoyed playing volleyball and spending time with her many friends. Her laughter, kindness, and easygoing spirit touched all who had the privilege of knowing her.

She is lovingly remembered by her parents, Krista and Dennis Douglas; her brother, Jered Douglas and his fiancé, Alyssa Meyers; her sister, Kiersten (Gaige) Johansmeier; her nephew, Riley Douglas; and her grandparents, Janet and Francis Douglas, and Ron Culver. Sophia also leaves behind her beloved “fur-babies,” Opus, Leo, and Mia. She was preceded in death by her grandmother, Ann Culver.

The family greeted friends from 5 to 8 pm Thursday, August 28, 2025 at Lutheran Church of the Cross in Altoona. Funeral services will be held at 11 am Friday, August 29, 2025 at the church, with burial following at Glendale Cemetery.

To honor Sophia’s memory, memorial contributions may be directed to her family. In keeping with Sophia’s fun-loving personality, she did not want a stuffy affair—so everyone was asked to come in comfy clothes, with no ties required.

Sophia’s joyful presence will be deeply missed, but her love will live on in the hearts of her family and friends forever. Condolences may be expressed at www.HamiltonsFuneralHome.com.
