Bonnie was a very special, caring teacher and warm human being. She loved her students, and took a special interest in each of them, making her classroom experience a wonderful one. For years afterward, whenever I saw her in town, she would ask how my daughter was doing and had a genuine interest in the answer. Bonnie, thanks for your warmth and caring. May you rest in peace.
