Sonia had a deep love for music, plants, and nature. She had a natural gift for growing anything she touched — family often joked that she could stick a branch in the ground and it would bloom. She especially loved plants, wildflowers, and anything bright and full of life. Tie-dye was one of her favorite things, reflecting the colorful spirit she carried through life.
She was also a very creative woman who loved making things with her hands. Sonia enjoyed crocheting and creating beautiful pieces, always finding joy in creativity and self-expression.
She found comfort in nature, especially collecting beautiful rocks, which she often said was her therapy. She also loved the beach, gathering seashells, and fishing. Sonia never hesitated to bait a hook herself and loved the joy of casting a line.
Sonia also had a love for anything with a loud motor. Whether it was cars, trucks, or anything that roared to life, it always brought a smile to her face and excitement to her spirit.
She loved birds and found joy in watching them. Those who knew her will always think of her when they see a bright red cardinal pass by.
Above all else, Sonia loved her children fiercely and cared deeply for her family.
Sonia lived life with a wild and free spirit. She was fun, full of life, open-hearted, and deeply spiritual. She was a God-fearing woman who showed love and kindness to everyone she met.
Like the rocks she collected and the flowers she loved to grow, Sonia brought color, beauty, and life wherever she went.
She lived colorful, loved deeply, and left a wild and beautiful spirit behind that will never fade. Her love, laughter, and vibrant spirit will live on forever in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
