  1. We have fond memories of a trip Sondra

    took with us to California in 1958.

    The Hoxie family has always been close

    friends. Sondra never talked negative about anyone and was always willing to help anyone in need.

  2. I never had the privilege of meeting Sondra, but feel through my dear friend Mike, that I knew her well. Mike always spoke so lovingly of her.

    They were blessed to have one another.

    Our love and prayers are with Mike and Sondra’s family.

  3. Michael and all the families,

    We the Field Family are so sorry to learn of the death of Sondra and wish there was more one could do. With families so far apart it makes matters more complicated.

    Please know our hearts are with you and we send our best to you and yours.

    With Deep Sympathy

  4. If a life surrendered to Christ is a life that is full, then Sondra’s life was overflowing with purpose and passion!

    I had the joy and priviledge of her friendship for about 31 yrs. We met when she lived in CA when I was in nursing school wth Mike.

    What impressed me most about Sondra was her quiet confidence and her compassionate heart.

  5. When I think or talk about Sondra, I remember when we were kids and our families were friends.

  6. Dear Mike,

    Jan just sent an email..I am so very sorry for your terrible loss.
