My deepest condolences to the family. I've known Sonny (or as my mother's family called him, Oatmeal) since I was a child. He was one of my Uncle Joe's buddies. even though uncle joe was in a wheelchair, the guys took him everywhere. sonny had the best laugh. full belly laughs. Fond memories of him and his Mom and brothers and sisters. He will be missed by many

So sorry to hear of Sonny's death. We remember him and Brenda from Kickers meetings and from the Lupus Fundraiser that the Berlin Fire department held many years ago. Many of the guys rode their cycles 1000 miles and raised $10 K for the Maryland Lupus Foundation. Brenda and Sonny were so enthusiastic about the event. Our sympathy to the family.

I just want to express my heartfelt sympathy to all of Sonnys family. My prayers are with you and Sonny. I could say a lot of great things about Sonny, but the best words I know, are that ...he was a good man. God bless you friend, and rest easy.
