We are saddened to learn of Sonny's passing, we last saw him in the late spring when he stopped by to chat. We liked him very much. He was a very nice man.

Rosie and family, my heart goes out to you all. Sal and Sonny had a music relationship with their drumming and golf. The best one though, was as Christian men friends, which was important to both of them. I enjoyed knowing Sonny in church and for awhile as our gardner. They were quite a pair, each with their infectuous smile. I know they are laughing and enjoying the presence of the Lord with their healed bodies. May God contiune to bless you all as you move forward. Love and prayers.

Sonny could truly say, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." Last night's services were a tribute to a true man of God and his family. I am so blessed to work with Rosie and Eileen and to have shared some small part of Sonny's Journey.

Sonny played drums on our worship team years ago at Calvary Chapel, Indio. He was also a great addition to a special 15th year reunion concert we'd done with our old band, "Morningsong" and was a faithful servant in the Lord's service. Sonny has now graduated to a wonderful place we all look forward to. His family will certainly see him again!

Sonny walked into our lives in 2003 shortly after we moved to Sun City Palm Desert from northern California. He landscaped our garden and it was a joy working with him. He was a wonderful man, and he talked so fondly about his wife and children. We were shocked to learn of his untimely passing. The garden that Sonny installed for us has thrived over the years, and a part of him will always stay in our hearts and our garden. Our hearts go out to his grieving family.

Sonny's illness sparked two little prayer warriors in our home. Brennen and Bryce didn't skip a night of praying for him, and now they (we) lift you up in continued prayer for strength and courage in the future. Please know how much you are loved and respected for your hearts and faithfulness. Much love...

My husband and I will think of Sonny everyday we live here in Shadow Hills. Two years ago he did all our landscaping and all the flowers and plants are perfect. Not only was he a great landscaper, but a very honest and giving individual. Please note he will be in our hearts everyday as we look outside and remember all the wonderful things he did for us. Please accept our condolences at this time of your loss.
Sincerely,
Gilda and Irv Kushner
