David and Nellie Sonnenberg
Celebrating wedding anniversary

It wasn’t long after the tall and handsome kid from Cleveland, Ohio, came to Belen High School that he met his soulmate. The two became high school sweethearts, and later married. God’s plan was for them to share a beautiful love story.

David retired from Innerspace Systems, Inc. He enjoys hunting, fishing and annoying his grandchildren and making them laugh.

Nellie is retired from Wells Fargo Bank. She enjoys spending weekends with her daughter, shopping and eating out.

The Sonnenbergs have two children, daughter, Tamra, and son, DJ and wife, LeeAnn. They have four grandchildren.

The couple will celebrate their anniversary with a small, intimate celebration due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
