Family,
I have known Sonny for over 20 years. I used to be employed at the RAARC and worked with Sonny for years before I left. I am now a Case Manager with RBHA and I used to still see Sonny whenever I visited the ARC which was almost every week. I want all of you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Sincerely, William Miles
