Not sure what to say?

Stephanie, Scott, Daddy, Blane, Julie and Chris.

I can't say anything to stop the pain or take it away I know so I decided to place here what I said in church so that you could have it always.

To my Angel, my dearest sister Sonya.

There are not word's to say how much you are loved and missed.

If love could change the way things are you would have lived forever and we would have gone so far.

You would know that I am alway's here and that I'll always love you...

Dear Julie & Family,
Please know that my prayers are with you during this time. What a bittersweet homegoing....bitter that you've lost your dear sister yet sweet in knowing she is with the Lord and no longer held prisoner in an earthly body that caused such pain. May the Lord bless and comfort each of you as only He can.
Know that my family and I are here if you need anything.

Rom. 8:38-39

Sonya and I were such good friends through out our 6 years at Pinedale Elementary and Junior High, but we grew up and lost touch as friends sometimes do, but I thought of Sonya often. I am very saddened by this news and I wish I could have attended the service. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the family at this time. The world has lost another wonderful and sweet person.
May God bless you all,

The Family of Sonya
This is truly a sad time for everyone who knew Sonya. She was a very good friend to me when I moved to Jacksonville. I remember staying the night at her home. I remember walking to school with her at Pinedale. I remember her trying to teach me how to cook ( that was not a easy job for her, because I did not know anything about cooking or doing any type of laundry it was always fun just going over to the Arnolds house I aways was able to learn something new)

I know that you all are still mourning the loss of your mama and regret that you have to endure yet another loss. Your family is in our prayers. After a long fight, Sonya has went home to be with God and her mama! Hold on to that and you will make it through. Listen closely and you will hear them singing and dancing....

Dear Patricia and Julie Ann,
My deepest sympathy goes out to you both. I know what it is like to lose a sister. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. If you need anything, please let me know.

Family of Sonya I extend my heartfelt condolences to you. I had the great fortune of working with Sonya at BCBS for several years before she got sick. I respected her as a person loved her like a sister. she was there for me at a time I needed a friend. she will be truly missed she was a great person and she touched so many lives. I know she is in a better place cradled in God's arms. I do pray for you dear family and wish you well.

I was so sad to hear Sonya had passed away. I know she is in Heaven and in no more pain. I'm so glad she had family/friends with her at the end of her time here on earth. I know her a little bit from Church. I am Letha Newmans daughter. My sons are Alex (15) David (12). Sonya was truely the strongest and bravest person I've ever known. She is most certainly with God. They are both looking over her loved ones.
