KENYON, Bonnie
On Monday, March 24, 2008, our Lord Jesus came to room 513 in the Robert Packer Hospital and took Bonnie Jean (Bassett) Kenyon by the hand and walked with her into glory. Bonnie was the loving wife of Ronald R. Kenyon, who she married on September 2, 1962. The couple had 45 wonderful years together. Family and friends are welcome to gather from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 29, 2008, at the W.R. Croman Elementary School, Canton Street, Troy, PA. A celebration of Bonnie's life will be held at 12:00 noon at Croman School with Rev. Garry Zuber and Rev. Joshua Payne officiating. Burial will follow the service in Glenwood Cemetery. The Gerald W. Vickery, Jr. Funeral Home, Inc., 110 West Main Street, Troy, PA, has been entrusted with the arrangements. Bonnie was born on November 15, 1943 in Roaring Branch, PA.
