Sondra Fortunato, otherwise known as Miss Liberty Has Died
If you reside in or frequently visit the Toms River region, it's possible that you have heard about Miss Liberty or perhaps met her previously. You've probably seen her if you watch sports or attend any local events in New Jersey.
Sandra Fortunato, referred to as Miss Liberty for many years throughout Ocean County, has passed away.
Miss Liberty had spent the last year or more fighting cancer. She lost her home due to the costs of her medical care. A gofundme was set up to help her get through this difficult time.
Sondra was one who cherished the limelight. For years, Miss Liberty was an unique "local celebrity". She was considered to be renowned just by virtue of her fame, which made her somewhat like an iconic figure in the community.
For decades, she was well-known among the locals for her "unique" style. It appears that Fortunato crowned herself "Miss World Series" and "Miss Super Bowl." However, it appeared that the majority of her titles were more "self-proclaimed" as they weren't given out by formal means.
Nevertheless, she was a well-liked local celebrity who participated in almost all photo ops and parades. She frequently attended Giants games in the stands.
Furthermore, you must have seen her driving her Cadillac about town with placards promoting her several championships if you resided in the Toms River, New Jersey area in the 1990s and 2000s.
Always smiling and happy to be around people. She will be missed by the community.
