Margherita Therese Pappas was a singer and actor who performed in New York City, San Francisco, Amherst, and elsewhere before settling in Maui with her husband of 18 years, Miguel Sobel.

Now she's gone, too, at the age of 73.

Pappas, who was born in Hartford, Conn., died in Pukalani, Hawaii, on April 23, her family says in a Facebook post.

"It is with infinite sadness and utter disbelief we share the sudden passing of Margherita Therese Pappas on Tuesday April 23rd 2024 in Pukalani (Maui) Hawaii," the family writes.

"Margherita had a profound impact on all the lives she touched, particularly those of her immediate family, first cousins, and her family in Hawaii.

One cousin (Z) described her to perfection as the most fun-loving person in our family.

She and her sister Marlena were always genuinely happy to see any of us, embracing each moment, making us feel valued, and the most important person(s) in their lives."
