My fondest memory of Bonnie is when she returned as a guest speaker to the Single Women's Lodge of The Salvation Army Purdue Center of HOPE last year after successfully completing the program. She boldly shared at the luncheon with the residents, guest and staff her struggles and success. She left a lasting impact. She was a very kind, thoughtful and witty young lady. She had the most infectious laughter and no one was a stranger to Bonnie. Rest in Peace BB. c.giles-thomas
