Sona Sue Anderson was a good wife, mother, and friend. She loved her children and all her family. Sona had a great sense of humor. She has many friends that she loved, and they love her. She was a kind and generous person. A big event in her life was learning about Jehovah God from her sister, Pat in the late 60’s. Sona was baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses on November 14, 1970.
She loved talking about Jehovah, her God, to anyone who wanted to hear. She tried to do the best she could in her life to please her God, Jehovah.
Although she is resting in peace, she had every confidence that she will be resurrected back to a beautiful paradise earth. We will miss her for now, but we eagerly look forward to that time when we will see her again in perfect health, along with her husband, Les.
“Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” (John 5:28,29)
