Sonja Bartlett

Posted

Sunset - Sonja Bartlett went home to be with the LORD on March 25, 2023.

Sunrise - Sonja Louise Coons was born on July 20, 1939 to Keith and Marjorie Coons of Trout Creek. 

The “highlight of her life” was her husband Wm. Henry Bartlett whom she married on Sept. 12, 1959. They made a home and raised their four children: Marge, Peggy, Bill and Tim in Walton.

Sonja worked alongside her husband and together they built their flooring business. Sonja’s eye for color and decoration as well as her keen business sense was a tremendous attribute to Bartlett’s Carpets.

Sonja was an active member of Pines Brook Baptist Church where she served as a teacher in Sunday School, Vacation Bible School and Whirlybirds.

Sonja used her talent for creating beauty to make a beautiful home filled with color, love, and grace, as well as to decorate at church.

She trusted Jesus as her Savior as a teenager and we have full assurance we will be reunited with her one day.

Sonja was preceded in death by her parents Keith Coons Sr. and Marjorie Stearns; her brothers and their wives Keith (Elsie) Coons and David (Jean) Coons, and her son-in-law Thomas Sackett.

She is survived by her husband of 63 years, Wm. Henry Bartlett; daughters Marge Sackett and Peggy (David) Hamley; sons Bill (Tracey) and Tim (Reneé) Bartlett; 11 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

Funeral Service was held on March 29, 2023 at the Pines Brook Baptist Church, Walton, NY.  Burial will be in Walton Cemetery.
