About Sophia[]
Sophia was Carrie's mother, and Arthur's first wife. She is written in the series storyline as having died when Carrie was a teenager. Sophia's death, depriving Carrie of the motherly support and guidance she needed, had a traumatic effect on Carrie, which led to her getting into a few bad relationships and dating promiscuously before she met Doug and changed her fast ways. Sophia died in 1985, learning Arthur a widower and the single parent of 15-year-old Carrie. Arthur was unable to stay employed steadily, forcing Carrie to work in addition to attending high school.
