As a high school friend of Sonya's I was told by a classmate of ours of her passing and I was so shocked and now I noticed where beautiful Karla has passed. I didn't know of William's either and from the bottom of my heart I am shocked and saddened at your loss. I enjoyed traveling to Chipley for our weekend retreats and you and your family were always the best hosts. I have no words to the greatness of these losses to you and have the fondest memories of horseback riding with Sonya and enjoyed the fun sibling pokes and jabs all four of them gave to each other during my many visits to your beautiful home. Bill and sybil I don't know if you remember me but coming to Chipley will always be one of my fondest memories. Candy Norvell
