Sione Ofa He Mo'oni Vunipola Jr.

We lived across the street from Sione for years. He was always so kind. I remember I had just pulled into my garage and had started to unload a huge load of groceries from Costco. He was maybe 15yrs old and walking by with a large group of friends. He left his friends and ran to my aid to help unload. He wasn´t concerned with being cool or that his friends had to wait, he saw a need and ran to help! We love Sione and the Vunipola family!!

Sione was a beautiful and kind soul. He truly was a gentle giant! Our heart aches for the Vunipola family.

Sione was such a nice, respectful boy. I worked at the elementary school and lived close by in the neighborhood. He was always smiling and a good friend to everyone. He was my daughter´s "date" to the 6th grade Valentine´s lunch in Mrs. Pitt´s class. Our hearts our aching for your family.

Our family loved Sione and miss him at this tender time. But we know that he is in the arms of a loving Jesus and has found rest from his mortal cares. Our prayers are with his family at this time. Until we meet again.
