Barbara and Family

I was shocked and saddened to learn of Sonny's passing. I have many fond memories of our school days and friendship growing up in Bellwood. Sonny was a very special person and will be missed by all that knew him. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. If I can be of any help to you or the family please let me know.
