H.P. (Sonny) Church Jr., age 71 of Oliver Springs passed away suddenly on Monday, May 7, 2018.  He was an avid hunter and fisherman and loved working on his target marksmanship.  He also fostered a love of photography.  In his later years he got the most joy by simply spending time with his family and was a very proud grandfather.   He was preceded in death by his parents, Hargus Sr. and Zell Church and one sister, Vicki Collins.

Sonny is survived by his wife of 52 years, Sheila Wilson Church, daughter and son-in-law, Erin and Michael Church of Knoxville, grandsons, Asa and Ari Church, several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, also several brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law and lifelong friends.
