there are so many wonderful things that can be said about my Aunt Bonnie, many of which so many others have said so eloquently.. Her cooking, her laugh, her kindess, her warmth, her love of children and animals... One of the things we had in common was our love of teaching and children..one of the books she gave me was all quotes about teaching.. one of my favorite.. .. i'm never going to be a movie star but then in all probability, liz taylor is never going to teach first and second grade..... I love you my teacher aunt. Love your teacher niece

Dear Keith, Valerie and Glenn,
There are not words to express all of our feelings for Bonnie. She has been a wonderful co-worker and an unbelievable teacher to both of my children. They both got their start with her. She will be missed by all whose lives she has touched. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all now and as you go forward.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
