My dearest Alethia,
My thoughts and love are with you at this time. I will never forget sitting beside my Daddy's grave and this beautiful young woman running back up the hill bringing me an umbrella as it started to rain. You will forever be in my heart the way you loved and cared for me during this time. I am returning to you this same love and wish that I could be there for you. Aunt Diana

Sonny was the bravest cancer patient we have ever known. He was a fighter and his will to live was strong. He will surely be missed.
