My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Losing a child is something you can never get over, and thank you Stan Tenney, for whatever role you played in his life. I know it must have been a good experience for him to have you for guidance. After losing my child, Courtney, Stan was everything good, peaceful and comforting in his ways . Sonny musy have experienced some of those traits while being with Stan. I have heard nothing but good thoughts about this young man. I hope he did not suffer in any way, but I am positive if he had Stan by his side, he had a smile on his face. May God Bless All of your loved ones, who will all be touched by this young man's path to eternal life. Brenda Pendry

Even though I didn't know Sonny very well, he was in my graduating class and we did have a few classes together. I'll always remember him being able to bring a smile to peoples faces or playing the class clown. My thoughts and prayers go to the family and many friends of Sonny. I pray that you will find peace in such a difficult time and remember that he will not be forgotten. Rest In Peace Sonny

Sonny & Helen-
My thoughts and prayers are with you. My heart is so sad! I remember holding Sonny in my lap while he was soing his breathing treatments and singing "Old McDonald Had A Farm" to him through it. It was the only thing that would keep him still. I pray you find peace at this very sad moment and want you to know I will be praying for you

Sonny,
Honey,its been a while since i last saw u,and i am reminded that life is soo,soo, short. I am so sorry i have,nt made time to come by just to see how you n yuor dad have been.You will be forever missed and never forgotton. For what ever plan God has 4 u my prayers have been about you honey and how so short you had on this earth and how unfair that is,because those of us who were blessed enough to have known you,know how bright your future would have been.You were one of those people who go out of their way to at least make a person smile no matter how your day was going.That was something that just came natural to you.You are loved and so missed by so many of those people , the paople that smiled on their bad days because of u.And no matter what was going on in your life the good, the bad, and the ugly,the lil Sonny I know had a huge heart and have always been the Center of your dads world.I promise i will make that time to stop by and see him sometimes (whether he wants me to or not). Bye baby,for now.I hope you have ur dream truck now. You deserve it.I will never forget you Sonny,and on behalf of Brittany and Kasey who can,t be there to tell u goodbye 4 now, they both are feeling like they lost a brother i know Britt is, yuo guys were practically sisters and brother,I don,t have to tell you how they felt about you,you were always there for them no matter what and the closest thing they will ever have to a brother.Rest in Peace sweetheart.We will all see you again,so until then,just know you earned your place in heaven, because of who u were and ps try not 2 flirt 2 much til u know the ropes.lol We love u Baby.

These memories will always be with us, whatever we do and wherever we go. For now, may caring, and loving thoughts from others help you through.
