Sonny requested his words be posted at the time of his death. He was a man who did it his way.

If you are reading this message, you'll know that I'm gone. I've asked that this note be posted immediately after my passing.

I've lived a long and good life filled with adventure. And I've had the privilege to be part of an amazing club. Although I've had a public persona for decades, i've mostly enjoyed special time with my club brothers, my family, and close friends. Please know that I passed peacefully after a brief battle with cancer. But also know that in the end, I was surrounded by what really matters: My wife, Zorana, as well as my loved ones. Keep your head up high, stay loyal, remain free, and always value honor.

He didn't fight in Vietnam. He lied about his age and joined in 1953.
