Sonny was a gentleman who played a mean game of crib. He was a gentle bear, and gave all to his friends and family. He will be missed.

The Hagen’s are like my bigger childhood family. Special memories with so many of them. Sonny & Elsie were the young sweethearts that came to the farm. Always appreciated Sonny’s big heart, big voice, big, gentle hands and big helps when needed — a big brother from the bunch of them. Thank you Sonny & Elsie for your open home and hearts, always. Our prayers will continue. Asking God to gently carry you along this rugged valley of shadows, Elsie, Melody, Mitch and families. We love you.

We did not know Sonny but we feel like we did from our brief encounter with you, Elsie and your daughter Melody at the St. Therese, St. Paul Hospital during a visit with my sister Danena in early December. For both of you to take time to come to Danena’s bedside when Sonny was going through his health troubles is a testimony of his love for you and your love for my sister. God Bless you and our deepest condolences.
