My main man Sonny, we worked thousands of gigs together over the last 25 yrs since I met you @ the Pub. I'll really miss working w you in the future and your great way of telling a joke, but most of all I'll miss your friendship.
Rest easy Leon.....

I was saddened to hear that your father passed away. He was one of the nicest people I know and he was a great dad. I would see him on occasion while visiting NJ.

Sonny was a member of The Crowd Pleasers band. He was a great organist, much appreciated and missed by his audience, band members and staff at Bob and Barbara’s.
Sincere condolences to the family at this sad time.
Sonny, thanks for the music and for sharing with us. We are lucky to have had you in our lives.
