With Mr. Sonny Boys passing, my village has gotten a little smaller. He gave me a job one summer before my freshman year of college. He told me I could always work for him during the summers (5). Along the way, he always encouraged me to stay the course and finish. I graduated from college & worked for him for two months until I got a teaching position. To the family, I offer my sincere condolences.
