I always remember how gracious and patient she was with your dad helping him to the bleachers to watch your darling daughters, (who i love dearly) play basketball at midddle school. She was always so kind when i greeted her and spoke to her. Jeff you Debbie, Stephanie and Amanda are in my prayers and thoughts.

I was so sad to hear of Bonnie's passing! I have so many memories of our families from about 7 yrs old. I remember her being pregnant with Brenda! She was such a loving mother and a wonderful person. I know she so loved her grandchildren as well she will be deeply missed and always very loved. We have a new angel in heaven watching over us all. Much love to you all Beverly.
