Teresa, Scott, and Families:  Our thoughts and prayers are with you in a special way.  Happy memories of Sonny and Nina will remain.  The times with them, Uncle Woodrow and Aunt Lola meant so much.  It would be great to see you.

Sonny will most surely be missed by the residents of our subdivision! He always had a kind word for the people (and dogs) that he met on his daily walks. We will also miss the tomatoes that he so freely shared. He was a kind and sweet gentleman that it was my pleasure to know.
