The benefit is for Sofia Goff. She and her late husband Sean were the proprietors of the wonderful Cafe Revo in West Seattle. When Sean passed away unexpectedly, Sofia tried desperately to hold onto the restaurant but due to costs incurred by Sean’s illness and death, the economy, and virtually receiving no pay for over 15 months it made it impossible. She still owes a substantial amount of money; they 2nd mortgaged their home and got

numerous loans to open Café Revo. Not only has she lost her husband and the restaurant, she is now in danger of losing her home.

While in business, the Goffs were always willing to hosts benefits for many West Seattle businesses and causes and we’re hoping you will come to her aid now. Sofia is raising two wonderful children by herself so you can imagine the dire straits she is in.
