My friend Carrie was rather close to Sonny.

Here is what she forwarded to me:

Sonny will be waked @ Sax-Tiedeman on Belmont, in Franklin park.
Phone # 847-678-1950,
Tuesday 3-9 p.m.
Funeral is Wed. 11 a.m.

Carrie also says:

"He was my regular customer and friend and I merely asked if he'd been in lately (apparently Thurs night and wasn't well.) My friends from Hala said that he'd had walking pneumonia and was asked to check in for tests wed. He blew it off , took an inhaler and left. Stubborn Sonny probably thought himself invincible. Now we know he wasn't-how sad."
