To the Sonenshine Family, My condolences. My thoughts are with you.

Dear Ms. Mildred and family,
I have such fond memories of Mr. Sonenshine who all of my life has been my Dad's "boss." Although, to our family he was much more and we will miss him greatly. I will always remember his contagious smile and generous ways with our family. He was Always wanting to give my twin, Judi and I some sort of electronic when we visited our Dad at work. It was so much fun to go to WIE and know we were going to see Mr. Sonenshine. He really was like a ray of sunshine to...

Mrs. Sonenshine and Family,
I was extremely saddened to hear of Itchy's passing. Having grown up in Charleston, one of the many lasting memories I have is of mine and Itchy's fondness for eating herring at the shul kiddush.

a true and loyal friend who will be missed. I had the pleasure of sitting next to him every Thursday night for poker.I will play the next hand for you
