Nina Trofimova Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 5, 2024.
Nina Trofimova (Corcoran), born on April 12, 1967, in Leningrad, USSR, peacefully passed away on August 30, 2024, in Tacoma, Washington, after a courageous 13-year battle with breast cancer. She was 57 years old.

Nina immigrated to the United States in September of 1997, where she made her home in Lake Arrowhead and Crestline, California. She built a life filled with love, resilience, and strength, traits she passed on to her four beloved children: Polina Corcoran of Honolulu, Hawaii; Isabelle Corcoran of Bremerton, Washington; Tassia Corcoran of Honolulu, Hawaii; Martin Corcoran, currently stationed at Fort Eustis, Virginia, and sisters Marina and Irina who reside in St. Petersburg, Russia.

During her final days, Nina was tenderly cared for by her daughter Isabelle, whose dedication and love provided comfort and peace during Nina's final moments.

A funeral service to honor and celebrate Nina's life will be held at Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church in Lake Arrowhead, California, on Saturday, September 14,th at 11:00 am, followed by a reception at the church.

Nina will be remembered for her quiet strength, and the remarkable journey she took across continents and through life's challenges. Her family and friends will forever cherish the memories of her enduring spirit.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Nina's memory to organizations supporting breast cancer research.
