My favorite beloved and blessed Uncle Sunny, you were such a humble man, a just man and a warm and caring person, most of all you were and still are my role model.
Ursula and I know you are with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May God keep you in his mighty wings
and show you around in his Kingdom. Greet Grandma, Dad, my Auntie and all the loved ones we lost.
Uncle Sunny, you will be sorely missed, I love you so much!
I know you're doing much better now!!
Amen, Glory to God!
