Our heartfelt sympathy and prayers go out to all of Onie’s family. The loss of such a truly amazing man is crushing to all of his family, friends, co-workers and community. I count myself lucky to have been related to Onie, but even luckier to be his friend. His commitment to Christ and his family can never be questioned. We will never know how many lives were impacted by Onie and his lovable personality, but we can rest assured that those who had the privilege to know him are better individuals for it.
