Rest in peace Sonny. You and your precious family gave me, a mere worker, many many precious memories that I'll carry with me until it's my turn to meet the angels. I sure hope we meet again when that happens. R.I.P. dear friend.

Sorry to hear the loss of a wonderful man.
I was fortunate enough to meet him and enjoy
his home and garden which he was very proud of. I will miss visiting him and enjoying a
glass of wine with him. He was a man of all smiles and enjoyed his life. May he rest in peace.
