Sonia was taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a loving home by wonderful parents who loved their children and lived the principles of the Gospel. Sonia loved her parents and siblings and their families so much and cherished her relationships with them.
“We will miss you dearly, but we know that through our Savior Jesus Christ we will be reunited again.”
Sonia married Duane Floyd Taylor on January 10, 1958 in the Manti LDS Temple; later divorced. Sonia and Duane are the parents of three children: Brent (Linda) Taylor and Debra (Roger) Bailey and Katherine Ann Taylor; 10 grandchildren, Nicole (Brook) Rogers, Ashley (Mark) Parrish, Julia Jacobson, Tiffany (Collin) Christensen, Emily (Joey) Raymond and Shawn (Sidney) Taylor, Brandon (Elise) Bailey, Kevin (Tosha) Bailey, Mary Kaye Bailey, and Stephanie Bailey; and 27 great-grandchildren.
Sonia later married Carroll Bert Robertson on January 27, 1968; later divorced. They are the parents of three daughters, Michelle Robertson, Susan (Dan) Flint, and Dianne (Christopher) Shoff; the grandparents of 11 grandchildren, Kari, Bailey, Braiden, Bryson, Brenn, and Boen Flint; and Hayes (Savanna), Tyler, Scott, Caroline and Gemma Shoff.
Sonia’s passions included music, dancing and reading. She loved listening to music and also encouraging others to sing. Her favorite Church calling, which she had numerous times, was that of chorister leading the music for the congregation. Sonia was dancing throughout her life from her earliest years as a little girl until her final days. Sonia loved to read and learn, a love which was also passed down to her children. She enjoyed discussing what she had learned with others and was an amazing conversationalist, able to strike up a friendly discussion with anyone, whether family, friend or stranger.
Sonia’s greatest love was for her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and she treasured spending time together with them, attending their activities and sporting events and eating together.
Sonia’s life was not easy and she endured many challenges, including the death of her infant daughter Katherine Ann, two divorces, raising a family as a single mother, and battling and beating Leukemia. Throughout these trials, Sonia was a devout member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints her entire life. Sonia deeply loved her family and her Savior Jesus Christ, and she was assertive and courageous in proclaiming her love for her family and sharing her testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in almost any setting she found herself in.
Sonia is survived by her son Brent (Linda) Taylor; daughters Debra (Roger) Bailey, Michelle Robertson, Susan Flint and Dianne (Christopher) Shoff; brothers Frank (Beryl) Cook, Louis (Judy) Cook, Paul (Gaye) Cook and Lynn (Nora) Cook; sister Beatrice (Tom) Dyches; 18 grandchildren and 27 great-grandchildren.
Sonia was preceded in death by her daughter Katherine Ann Taylor; parents, Scott and Euleda Cook; sisters Carolyn (Clyde) Garrett, and Doris (Bob) Nielson; sister-in-law Dorothy Cook; son-in-law Dan Flint; and granddaughters Mary Kaye Bailey, Stephanie Bailey and Kari Flint.
