I am Joe Popivchak's daughter. I would only see Sonny occasionally for family events but I have always thought he was just such a nice man. He was always upbeat, kind, fun and he always made me feel happy to see him. The last time I saw him, he and my Dad took a walk down memory lane about their childhood in Irishtown. It was very sweet. I am very sorry for your loss.
