My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Dee. He is at peace which hopefully will bring you some comfort. I know how much he will be missed. He was the center of your very close, loving family. I only met him a few times but found him to be a funny interesting story teller whom I enjoyed listening to very much. This is such a sad time for you and your family but your fond memories of him will be in your hearts forever.

Dear Helen, Sunny was one of my favorite older cousins. He frequently visited our home on Felton St., So. Lowell. I remember us wading in the dammed-up brook behind our house, and his saving me from drowning once when I was just a tot. He took me fishing on the Corcord River behind his house. I was 8 years old when, while playing in our yard, he flipped me over his shoulder, and I landed badly with a compound fracture on my arm. Sunny felt so badly that he stopped coming to visit, as I sadly recall. He was always watching out for all of us. It was always a treat to visit him at his parents home, as he always had animals for us to pet, rabbits or horses. My wife and I visited him at his FL home in 1989, and of course he invited us to ride his beloved horses. I would be happy to send photos I have if you desire. His hospitality and kindness will always be remembered.
