Sonya White

This is the story of Sonya (Sonie) Jean White.  Sonie was a Beautiful Soul who was born September 8, 1970 to Charles Lee Givens and Delores Givens in Columbus Ohio. A member of the National Honor Society, she graduated from Mifflin High School in 1988; prior to attending Columbus State Community College for an Associate Degree.  Sonie was employed with Pactiv for 20 years where she worked as a Machine Operator.

Sonie lived a life full of Love; Laughter; and Prosperity all the while wearing several different hats.  She was a giving Mom to her daughters: a gracious Gigi to her grandbabies; a doting daughter; a darling aunt; an amazing sister; a fun niece; a loving companion; and a proud owner of two fur-babies.  Sonie had a laugh that would light up the room and a heart made of pure gold. In addition, Sonie shared an avid love for sports that was unparalleled; rather it was attending an OSU Football Game, a Cleveland Cavs Basketball Game, watching tennis at 4 AM or attending a family member’s sports event, she was there focused; a commentator and you better not ring her phone until the game was complete. Sonie was an all-around Wonderful Woman who will be missed and whose memory will continue to be cherished.

Our beloved Sonie went to be with the Lord on January 6, 2022 at the age of 51, in the comfort of her residence.  She is proceeded in death by father Charles Givens, grandfather Lawrence Harden, grandmothers Naomi Harden and Hattie Givens.  Survived by mother Delores Givens, daughters Kourtney White and Kevina White, brothers Kurtis Givens and Scott (Shalawn) Havener, sisters Kishia Givens and Gail Havener-Williams, grandchildren, Dezion, Amare, Amone, Amier, Amuad, DeKenzie and Dior; a host of uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, 2 fur babies, loving companion Dion Coleman and a host of other relatives and friends.
