Simons, Sonya "Sunny" Leigh Bay City, MI Sunny, age 63, died unexpectedly of COVID on December 18, 2020. She was born December 31, 1956 to Edna H. Kay-Simons and the late Moss Simons. She loved and enjoyed showing her pure-bred Scotty dogs and Flat Coat Retrievers, even winning Blue Ribbons for her champions. She worked 38 years for Head Start of Bay City and Saginaw, teaching many children and then their children whom she loved and they loved her. “Miss Sunny” as she was known by her Head Start kids, and “Aunt Sunny” as she was known by her second family, would love for you to know that she left an everlasting legacy of love, kindness and generosity. In fact, the songs and stories she taught them are all, are still being sung and passed on to future generations. She is loved and missed She is survived by her mother, Edna H. Kay-Simons; sisters, Michele R. and Kar'en R. Simons; cousins, Monica and Harley Rudoi of New York, Gillian Brodie and other cousins of Great Britain, her dearest and closest friend, Jeannie Huffman Sorgenfrei-Swedberg; and her second family, the Huffmans. The family asks that you remember her and toast her life on New Year's Eve, as she would have turned 64. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that those planning an expression of sympathy consider Memorial Contributions directly to the Bangor Veterinary Clinic, 3917 N. Euclid Ave Bay City, MI 48706. The family thanks everyone for their love and support, and wishes all a happier healthy New Year. Please stay safe and wear a mask. No gathering will take place at this time, however, a Celebration of Life is being planned for a later date.
