Sunny passed away last year.  He worked DOE, TVA and the road.  Quite a character.  Miss his antics, humour, and big heart.

Valentine's especially makes me think of Sunny.  He always brought us gals a little box of candy.  You could hear him going into each office with the candy and telling the occupant that they were his favorite.  Too funny!  Miss those bear hugs, Sunny.
