Mrs. Carter; I am so sorry to hear of Bonnie's passing; I knew she was worse and I have no excuses other than I work in Glouc. and have been in Richmond and Eliz. City, NC for a week with my children for the holiday. I just knew of this today; like right now, Wed. June 2.
I know you are suffering a great loss and my heart goes out to you. I will try and get by and visit with you soon.

My sincerest deepest sympathy to all of you. Bonnie was a wonderful person and a great coworker. I looked up to her for much of my training in compliance in the last year that she worked for 1st Advantage. She is now resting in heaven with our Lord and savior. God bless all of you.

Bernice,Judy,Kathy and all the other family members: Bonnie and I were friends for 35+ years.She was such a dear person. As you all know, Bonnie and I had nicknames for each other. She was Mat (short for Matilda) and I was Blossom. I will so miss hearing her say, "Hey Blossom, what cha' doing?". Mat was truly one of the dearest friends I have ever had and I knew when we met at First Virginia Bank,that we would be friends forever. She was one of the sweetest, kindest, most giving people I have ever known. It was such a privilege and a honor to call her 'friend'. She will be missed by so many. I will always cherish the fun we had together, the countless hours that we talked and laughed on the phone and the many confidences that we shared with each other. I am so grateful that I visited her, hours before the Lord called her home. To be able to see her, talk to her, hold her hand and tell her that I loved her, meant everything to me. I can only hope that she knew I was there. For those few minutes, we were Mat and Blossom...for the last time. My prayers are with all of you, as you go through this difficult time. Hold your memories in your heart and she will always be with you.

I'll miss you greatly Aunt Bonnie, as will your half sisters Joyce and Barbara. I'm sure that your half-brother Ray Jr. was waiting to greet you on the other side. You two behave up there!
You were a wonderful caring lady that had a laugh that would fill a room. Some things are so confusing but I guess HE has the grand plan laid out for us.

OH my - I was just thinking about Bonnie and Judy a couple of days ago---the Carter family that I have known since I was - what? 5 years old? Mr. and Mrs. Carter and their beloved "Shatze" and the
Daschunds over the years. My dear Judy and Mrs. Carter, I was so surprised to see Bonnie's obituary this morning and am so sorry to see that she is no longer with us. We had some good times together. WL sends his best as well.
Bonnie was funny - and I enjoyed spending time with her and the whole Carter family. I know how badly she will be missed.
Judy I see you are in South Carolina - hope you are thriving and happy. Mrs. Carter would love to come by and see you over the summer.
Love and sympathy are sent your way ! Bonnie was such a neat lady and she will be missed--we deal w/the CU she worked for, here in Hampton---wish I'd known she worked there, would have loved to talk to her.
Sending lots of love and sympathy your way----
