Such a nice dad of my longest and most valuable friend. He was always willing to pick up at all hours of the night when Lynn and I were in our teens. He was always so nice when I was over spending hours listening to music in Lynn’s room. May he Rest In Peace.
I have so many wonderful memories of Uncle Sonny from childhood to adulthood that will remain close to my heart. From all the holidays and special occasions we spent together where he would set up his camera on a timer to take a group photo, to whooping it up at the Bounty Inn and many bon voyage parties, to his warm and comforting words when my mother was failing. He was a warm and caring person with a great sense of humor. Rest in peace Uncle Sonny. I am comforted knowing you are with the rest of the family in heaven. You will be forever in our hearts. Love, Doreen
God bless you all and will keep you all in my prayers 🙏
You were a major part of making me who I am today! I always looked up to you and respected you. You taught me so much about life. Some of my most cherished memories were with you and Nans. While for may be physically no longer here your will live forever in the hearts and memories of so many people. Happy Father’s Day in Heaven you will be always remembered.
