Dave, Our deepest sympathy. May the happy memories you made with Sunny help you through this difficult time. God bless you now and always. Melanie, Gerry and Chris Donofe
Sorry to hear. Sunny was a wonderful lady and will be greatly missed. Love and prayers for the family.
Sorry to hear of Sunnys passing. She’s was a amazing lady. My mother and sunny was friends. Lots of love an her family will be in my prayers.
Over the years, Sunny was many things to me, many of which English words do not exist to describe the relationship. We had many good times and, unfortunately, some sad ones as well. Of all the roles she filled, the most notable was that of the loving and doting mother and grandmother. My sons could not have wanted for a better cheerleader in their corner. What I have learned from her and hope to carry forward the most is the loving acceptance she extended to her son’s significant other. I can only hope to do half as well for my sons. Rest in peace, Sunny Jo. I love you and will miss you greatly.
She aways asked about my momma (her cousin). It meant more to me then she will ever know. I only met her a handful of times but she always treated me like we saw each other every day. She was a wonderful lady. God definitely received an amazing angel for Christmas. Praying that her family finds peace…
Sunny touched all of our hearts..we will always remember her. The family is in my heart and prayers..love you guys.
I am so sorry of your wife’s passing. Hold onto the beautiful memories. Your in my thoughts and prayers.

R. I. P. Sunny! You are in God’s home now along with your son, David! You will be missed! Prayers to the family
I’m very saddened by this news. Sunny was such a good person. She worked for us at Weirton Wholesale for years with her crew. Even on oxygen, she would work. Never tiring. Such a kind soul. Sympathies to Dave & the whole family.
I really going to miss you aunt sunny you have teach me how to free woman I love you said hi to my pappap and gramma
So sad to hear this. Sunny used to babysit me and my sisters as kids and was always a sweet lady. Rest well Sunny. You are loved and missed!
Sunny, you are a good person who has been loved & respected from many. love you, Patti & Dale Visyak
Well Sunny I know you are at peace and with Dave, but that does not make it any easier to say Good-by . Just like the song how do I say Good-by ????? I set thinking of all the things we did together. I could write a book. You was always there for me and my kids. As I was for you. These past years I hated it because you couldn’t get out and do things that you loved.. I remember how many times me you and Bob would take out in the car to check out things.. From going to mom and dads grave or checking out something someone told us about. Words cant even describe what I’m going to do without you. My heart is so so broken without you. I was told that when I was born Sunny was so upset because she wanted to be the baby of the family. When I came 6 year after she was born upset she was, I was told. But we became a Real Team we worked together many places, we laughed together, we got in trouble together, we cried together, we together I think could have done anything… My Dad would say Sunny made the bullets and I shot them… Pretty Much.. I will miss all those talks around the table, laughing so hard that she would say, Stop Pat I Can’t Breath… I know she is at peace now and with Dave and all the went before her.. God Gave Me A Angel For Christmas her Name Is Sunny…. RIP and Fly High… I Love You More Then You Could Ever Know……Your Baby Sister..
I am sorry for your loss, I have many memories of Sunny, she had a big part of my life growing up. I will cherish the memories I have and see her again one day, along with the others I miss so much. RIP Sunny, Love ya
