Beasley, and Barbara Bond; brother and sister-in-law, Richard and Barbara Stewart; caregiver, Reba Crawford; and many other family members and friends.
Sonny enjoyed being in the presence of his friends whether it be playing golf or poker. He was a bright light (hence the nickname), and he will be sorely missed by all who knew him.
