Sonamatti Beharry

In the early morning hours of May 29, 2026, the world lost a beloved soul, as Sonamatti Beharry passed away peacefully in her sleep at Stone Brook Hospital. She was 83 years old. The devoted nurses and doctors who cared for her remember her gentle spirit and the warmth she brought to every room she entered. Born on September 23, 1942, in the serene surroundings of Canal 1, Guyana, Sonamatti was the cherished daughter of Mar. Her early years in the vibrant and close-knit community of Canal 1 cultivated her lifelong love for family and friendship. These values guided her through a life filled with love, laughter, and generosity. Sonamatti's legacy is carried forward by her five loving children: Sammie, Rohan, Patrick, Nadira, and Indira. Her presence in their lives was a beacon of strength and wisdom, and her teachings will continue to influence them for generations to come. She was also a proud grandmother to four grandchildren, who were the light of her life, and she delighted in sharing stories and wisdom with them, ensuring that her legacy of kindness and resilience would continue to flourish through them. In addition to her children and grandchildren, Sonamatti leaves behind a tapestry of extended family and dear friends. Her ability to connect with people, regardless of their background, was a testament to her open heart and compassionate nature. She was a friend to many and a stranger to none, and her passing leaves a void in the lives of all who were fortunate enough to know her. The celebration of Sonamatti's life will take place at Moloney Funeral Home on June 6, 2026, at 9:30 AM. Family, friends, and all whose lives she touched are warmly invited to join in commemorating her remarkable life and the indelible mark she left on this world. It will be a time to share memories, shed tears, and find comfort in the stories of her kindness and generosity. While we mourn the loss of Sonamatti, we also celebrate the extraordinary life she lived. Her spirit will forever live on in the hearts of her family and friends, in the stories passed down through generations, and in the countless lives she influenced with her kindness and love. As we say goodbye, we hold onto the beautiful memories and the lessons she imparted, cherishing them as her enduring gift to us all.
