I am sorry to hear of Sonny's passing. I knew him about 40 years ago when he, Lynn and I were young single guys that would get together on weekends and keep the roads hot. He was always a nice guy.

Dear Theresa and Goad family, a special person was lost today. Sonny was a loyal husband, brother, uncle and friend. Full of life, loved kids that showed through his love of coaching baseball. He was instrumental in getting Kevin on Spraque's little league baseball team. Theresa you were the special light in Sonny's eye. A love like yours and Sonny's occurs once in a lifetime.
