Coralynn Eve Sobolik was born in Decorah, Iowa, on July 18, 2017, the daughter of Paul and Meagan (Novotny) Sobolik. She was little sister to Maycee and Oliver. She was a loving little girl, who liked to give out kisses and had an infectious laugh. She enjoyed watching for the school bus, often asking “Where’s Sissy?” 

Coralynn had a mischievous side, too. She was known to steal her big sister’s Barbie dolls and pour out Lucky Charms for the marshmallows. She loved being outside blowing bubbles and chasing kitties and puppies. She liked bubble baths, wearing her boots (or anyone’s shoes she could fit in) and listening to “Baby Shark” doo doo… Some of her favorite foods were popsicles, green beans, pickles and putting raspberries on her fingertips then eating them off. 

Even though Coralynn was so young, she made a huge impact on the world. She was able to donate her heart and save a one-year-old little boy, her liver saved a one-year-old little girl, and her kidneys went to help a 41-year-old lady. 

Coralynn is survived by her parents, Paul and Meagan Sobolik; big sister, Maycee; big brother, Oliver; paternal grandmother, Becky Dunn; paternal grandfather, Larry (Denise) Sobolik; maternal grandparents, Randy and Pamela Novotny; paternal great-grandparents, Art and Bev Bina; aunt, Melissa (Brad) Brevig and their children (Coralynn’s cousins), Madison, Kylie and Emmalee; uncle, Michael Novotny; aunt, Nancy Sobolik; and many great-aunts and uncles.

She was preceded in death by her paternal grandfather, Jim Dunn; paternal great-grandparents, Donald Sobolik and Nancy Sobolik; maternal great-grandparents, Virginia Madden and Ernie and Helen Novotny; and maternal great-uncles, Mike Novotny, Thomas Madden and Bob Madden.
