      2. This is so sad.... :( If the family could please contact me if they are able to at a time convenient for them... I am a advocate and a survivor of domestic violence... I have my own website: www.crystalsrosesdiamondsandstars.com which focuses on youth and women information resource for domestic violence, in which I hav e intense background and training through DC Superior Court, US Attys. Office for the District of Columbia as well as the DC Metropolitan Police Dept. I would like to add a special segment in memory of Sonia, although I only had the opportunity to meet her once, through my hair stylist, Candice Heffner at Thatz a wrap hair salon.... I can certainly say the she was a very kind person.... My prayers go out to her family... But please know that her spirit will always be you all.... Crystal Taylor
