Immaculee Sofia Goldade

Immaculee Sofia Goldade, beloved daughter of John & Amber Goldade; sister of Gemma, Genevieve, Gianna, Lucia, Josephine, John Wayne, and Mary Goldade; Granddaughter of Angie Goldade and Wayne & Sonia Turner; and best friend to Kathleen Olson, and best cousin to Augustina Herreid, has been raised by Jesus to her eternal reward.  

Born on August 5, 2009 in Tacoma, Washington. Passed away on January 15, 2022, at the age of 12. Immaculee was a fun loving child. She enjoyed life and experiencing new things, she loved being a friend and making new friends. She loved to laugh and joke around, she was endowed with a caring spirit, a compassionate heart, and a large unforgettable smile. It seemed that her goal in life was to have fun. Immaculee enjoyed many activities, including playing sports, snowboarding, games, and sleepovers. She especially enjoyed talking on the phone, chatting, messaging, and playing interactive games with her friends. She was homeschooled and attended St. Joseph Homeschool Program. She had also previously attended Visitation Catholic STEM Academy. She is survived by her parents and grandparents, her seven siblings, and too many cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends to list.

Words cannot express our gratitude to all those who reached out to us in love, with gifts, cards, money, food, and condolences. The response has been unbelievable, and we further thank our family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, complete strangers, the Pierce County Sheriff’s department, and this entire community. We wish it were possible to thank each and every individual, but just know we are grateful for all of you. A special thank you to our family, who rallied together, and took care of us every day during this trying time. We would also like to thank Father O'Brien and our community at St. Joseph Catholic Church.
