His unwavering faith and courage allowed him to overcome any obstacle, and he used these experiences to offer support to those around him.

Rather it was driving his wheelchair from downtown to Frankies barbecue, sharing his faith with others, going in his wheelchair to pay his respects to every one of his friend's funerals, visiting those who was sick in all types of weather. Sonny was for many years president of the resident council, a position he took very seriously; making sure every resident was taken care of to the highest standards. He will be missed.
