Sonny was truly one of the best pilots I ever had the privilege to work with on wildfires. He loved to fly fast and low with a big smile on his face.
Thank you for always having our backs and supporting us all on the ground.

The memories are many and special. Sonny flew with John but after retirement, we had the best foursome for cards and travel adventures. So much fun as we explored together. Damn, Sonny, we are going to miss you so much. We smile every time we think of you and our hearts break for our dear friend, Char, and the blended family. John and Linda Adolphson
