I am in shock. I thought with Sunny's Native American heritage that he would live a longer life. When I first met him, I bought his Slingerland blue-sparkle drum set...I thought he was an "Asian"! I used to drive him around and hang with him at Scorgie's Bar in Rochester, NY. He had many stories...In fact, I think he moved out of Rochester because he was an informant against the mafia or other criminals. He was very talented and could sing or imitate other singers from Rock to Rockabilly to American Idol styles. He had a big heart despite any negative stories (which were few). I know that he is an angel waiting for Heavens door to open up for him. God bless Sunny Boy!

May he rest I peace. New this man and I can say he loved his native background ,And cared to keep it Strong an remembered. He played the bass very well and loved doing it. His mother would be ferry sadden over this and if people don't know she is doing well but in a nursing home. Scottie I have know words but you sis needs a loving brother, deep down all she wants is just for you to get along and love one another . But it's up to you two. Just saying love your family like my own. I help her all I can , she is lost. Try to see her.
