I knew Sonny as a caring man with a beautiful soul. May the memories of the love and happiness that Sonny gave you fill the hole that his leaving has left in your hearts. May you feel the loving and comforting hands of The Good Lord as they hold you close.

Lacey was a very special person and Shorty and I were very fortunate in having him part of our lives. Lacey was a very wonderful human being and will, surely, be a wonderful angel. Perhaps he and Shorty are getting re-connected right now.
