Received your message this morning, Dave. Very sorry to hear of Bonny's passing. Had hopes that maybe this past year had brought her home but... I know she loved her home, loved you Dave and always loved nothing more than being a mom and gramma. Hope you all are healing with time. Missing her and thinking of you all.
With Love, Lisa

Bonny and I were friends way back in school. I used to call her "Ringo" after Ringo Starr. She was the fun one - I was the quiet one. I'm so sorry to read of her passing - she was much, much too young. She'll always be with you all in your memories. Wendy Stiffler Joyce

Bonny and I were buddies way back in the late 60's at Crosby Jr. High. Hadn't seen her in years and was very sad to have read of her passing. She was full of fun and I am sure that didn't change. . .My condolences to her family and friends. Jackie Harmon Moffatt

My dearest and closest friend you are at peace now and "home with your family". I will miss you so very much but have so many "special" memories that I cherish. Until we meet again know that my heart mourns my loss, and you will always be close in my heart. I miss you so but know deep inside that you are no longer in pain and that you are in a better place.
