Here are the patches on my wall:

The top one is STS-33, which Sonny rode on. The star under the eagle's beak represents David Griggs, who was originally assigned to this mission, but was killed in a plane crash.

The bottom patch is STS-42, which Sonny was scheduled to fly, but was killed beforehand.The gold star represents Sonny.
