Sonya Rochelle Harden

After a valiant and courageous four-year battle, on the morning of Friday, June 5, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., our Heavenly Father gently whispered, “Sonya, come with me”, to our beloved Sonya Rochelle (Davis) Harden, at her residence. Sonya, 58, a fighter and true warrior until the end, heard the Master’s call. She trusted Him throughout her journey, relying heavily on her favorite passage of scripture, Proverbs 3:5-6.

God graciously gifted her to us on March 15, 1968, the daughter of Ronald A. and Dolores Davis, Sr.

A lifelong resident of Warren, Ohio, Sonya was a 1986 graduate of Warren Western Reserve High School and attended ITT Technical College. She was a Child Support Establishment Case Worker at the Trumbull County Child Support Enforcement Agency, beginning her career on August 8, 1988.

Sonya was a member of Second Baptist Church, where she served with her time, her talent, and her treasure. She taught Sunday School, Bible Study, and was active in the Children’s Church Ministry. She also served as Children’s Church Director and directed Vacation Bible School. A student of the Word, Sonya faithfully attended Thursday evening Bible Study. She served on the Louis Riggins Scholarship Committee as a dedicated secretary.

In her spare time, she enjoyed gardening, bowling, fishing, and spending time with family.

She married Timothy Harden, Sr. on August 30, 2003.

Besides her husband of Warren, left to celebrate her life and cherish her memory are her children, two sons, Aaron Williamson and Timothy Harden, Jr.; two daughters, Kiera Williamson and Brittany Williamson; three granddaughters, Neveah Williamson, Aaliyah McMillion, and Aujha’e Williamson, all of Warren; two brothers, David A. (Michelle) Davis, of Augusta, Georgia, and Ronald L. Williamson, Jr., of Columbus, Ohio; one sister, Tonia (Andrew) Thornton, of Lordstown, Ohio; one uncle, Charles (Faye) Reid, Jr., of Columbus; two aunts, Evelyn (James Sr.) Howard, of Warren, and Carolyn (Gregory Sr.) Arnold, of Columbus; her sister-friend, Rose Jones, of Brookfield, Ohio; her faithful furry companion, Kobe; as well as a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents; maternal grandparents, Charles and Hattie Reid, Sr.; and paternal grandparents, Dale and Josephine Davis.

Sonya was a beautiful soul who allowed her light to shine. She leaves a legacy of love, kindness, compassion, and caring. She will be sorely missed and lovingly remembered.

A Home Going Service will be held in her honor on Saturday, June 20, 2026, beginning at 12:00 p.m., at Second Baptist Church, 1510 Main Avenue, SW, Warren, Ohio 44483, where family and friends may pay their respects from 11:00 to 12:00 p.m. She will be laid to rest in Pineview Memorial Park, Warren.
