Sonny and Shirley were our neighbors growing. Billy, Diane and Kenny were our friends (Kenny was young) I loved them all very much. Sonny would help with anything. He took me and Mom to the emergency room once cause my Dad wasnt home and I was hurt. He had the best smile and I loved his laugh. Such a sweet and loving man. Ill never forget you Sonny because you have a place in my heart.
