Mamie "Nana Doll" Soda, 95, long-time resident of Des Moines died Friday, November 9, 2012 at her daughter, Donna's, home near Norwalk.
Mamie was born on August 8, 1917 to Joseph and Theresa (Berardi) Pirillo. She graduated from East High School and married Dominic Soda in 1937. Her first job was at Rollins Hosiery Mill. Later she and her husband, Dominic, worked together as home builders.
She was also a realtor for Andrews Realty. Nana Doll was a very strong, loving, independent and practical woman. She shared a passion for polka and country dancing with her long-time friend, Bernie McVey.
She was very creative and sewed most of her own clothes. There was nothing she couldn't fix without the use of duct tape and aspirin. She inspired many and will truly be missed by all.
