Sonia was a loving military spouse, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. When Don was away serving our country, Sonia took care of the children. She was described by her son-in law as the best motherin-law a man could ever have. She would always love to get the family together, which was hard with the children living spread out across the country. Sonia enjoyed playing cards with her friends, Bingo, Bunco, and best of all, a good Bushwhacker. Cremation was in Pensacola, Fla. A memorial service along with interment of the cremation remains will be at the Rosendale Plains Cemetery in Tillson, N.Y., at a date to be determined.
