Sonja Ann Morgan, 64, passed away Saturday, June 16, 2012.
Born to Leroy and Martha Buffkin on Sept. 26, 1949, in Tabor City, N.C., Sonja eventually moved to Fort Walton Beach, Fla., in 1978. Known for her quick wit and wicked sense of humor, Sonja was generous and accommodating to those who crossed her path. Her nonjudgmental nature and big heart made it easy to love and cherish her. With style and grace she managed to navigate through the tough times of her life and appreciate her family, friends and God.
She is survived by her loving family: husband, Jim Matthes; son, Donald Morgan Jr. ("D"), and his sons, Damon and Zachary; daughter, Christie Morgan; sisters, Brenda Douglas and Greta Jean Nolan of Pensacola, Fla., and Marjorie Buffkin of Alpharetta, Ga. ; and a loving extended family. Sonja was preceded in death by her parents; and brother, Larry Buffkin.
