In lieu of flowers the family has requested that contributions be made to the Pink Heals Tour, Guardians of the Ribbon, 1939 E. Palo Verde Drive, Phoenix, AZ 85016, an organization that lifted her spirits during her illness.

I really encourage you to send a donation to this organization. They did the most increadible thing for Sonia when she was in the hospital. She had really been looking forward to going to see the tour and then she had to go to the hospital. A call was made and the entire tour went out of their way and delayed their trip for a short time to go see Sonia. The one fireman waited forher in the hospital and gave her 2 t shirts and then when they went outside the rest of the group was waiting for her with a dozen roses. She was able to sign her name on 2 of the firetrucks. The tour even waited for Heather, my Brother and the kids to get there to get pictures. They even let Hunter get in the trck and start it up! They are just increadible people that travel the country spreading love, support and hope! Any money donated in Sonia's honor will fo toward starting a chapter of Pink Heals in Sonia's hometown and even naming their next Firetruack Sonia!!!! Such an increadible thing!

Here a pictures from when they came to see Sonia

















Sonia was such a giving and wonderful Wife, Mother, Grandmother and Friend. Her life will continue to shine through those who knew her. We will be united one day!
