Dear Loretta,
I am so sorry to hear of Sonny's passing. Although we haven't seen one another, nor had I seen Sonny since we were kids, I have warm memories. I especially remember how Sonny use to pretend he was you when I would call on the phone. Your voices sounded alike. It was very funny as well as a bit embarrassing! Sonny always seemed so kind.
I'm very sorry for your loss, Loretta.
Old neighborhood friend,
Wendy Berthiaume
