When I was a student at Arcadia High Mr. Ellerman was our "shop" teacher. He was was liked and respected by students and faculty alike. I still have a picture frame I made in shop and he generously gave me a "C" on it. Thanks, for the memories. Susan and I have you all in our thoughts and prayers.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Mr Ellerman taught me Industrial Arts at Arcadia High School.It was the 1963-64 school year. He was also our sophomore class sponsor and a really nice guy. I know all of you will miss him greatly.

When I was a very young boy, I vividly remember my cousin Sonny patiently explaining to me how to build a ship in a bottle. He made what appeared to me impossible seem almost effortless. I did not really understand how he was able to do it, but I knew with absolute certainty that he could it. In fact, from that point on, I was convinced that my cousin Sonny could do just about anything. And I was right. Peggy, Dwayne, and Jeanne, I pray that in this time of profound sadness you will find some solace in celebrating your memories of Sonny’s extraordinary life: a life that truly was a gift to all of us who had the privilege of knowing and loving him.

Heartfelt condolences to you, Peggy and the entire family in this time of great loss and sadness. Childhood memories of Sonny's optimism and sweet spirit will remain forever etched in our hearts and minds. He was truly a "gentleman" in every sense of the word. We were blessed to have him as a cousin.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you go through the next few weeks. I know Uncle Sonny is having quite a reunion with everyone. He probably has God, Jesus, and all the Angels laughing! Prayers for peace for all of you! I'm so thankful for our visit Sunday! Lots of Love, Kaye and Gene
