Even after we have said our goodbyes you will never be forgotten. Our hearts may feel empty but mine is filled with all the memories and the laughter that we have shared through the years. You fought a long hard battle but never gave up. Now you are with Paw Paw & Nan Nan and are singing with the angels. I love you uncle Sonny and will see you again in heaven.

Sonny was a cousin of mine. When I would be at my mothers home ( Alice Bain), and if he rode by on his way home he would always yell out hey cuz. He always had a great sense of humor about him. Everytime that he saw me, he would always yell out something, most of the time it was hey cuz and then we would have a conversation. He will be missed. He is not in pain any more. God Bless him.

You were one of my best friends all through school. We made alot of memories and laughed until we were sick. Sonny you were very dear to my heart and I will forever miss you! Thanks for being you!
