    To Sonjas family. our deepest sympathy to you all. I first met her when she lived in the apartment building across the street when we were in grade school. Soon we were playing on the front lawn of our house with our batons, she was fun! Special hi to Jason, so nice to see you and hear how she was, I worked at Logan Middle and my mom lived at Sauber so thats how we met.
    Gods peace to you all, my prayers are for you, Judie & Mark Doolittle
