Sonia will always be remembered with love and affection. Her friendship with my Mom was profound and lifelong. Many happy memories of festival and birthday meals around her table, and her presence at all Hecht milestones. Sending my love and affection to all her children and grandchildren. Feel grateful to have been her friend. Love, Naomi
