I can still see the "Mouse Club" members and the joy it brought to myself
and many others. Part of my past and good memories. Thank you for
being a huge great participant in those days! May you rest in peace
and be reunited with those Club memories who have gone before.
A Mickey Mouse Club once again but in your heavenly home..

I loved watching Bonni Lou Kern and her fellow "mice" and wish I had the pleasure of having met her as I did Jimmie Dodd, and, in later years, Bobby Burgess, Annette Funicello and my nurse (when she lived in Nashville), Darlene Gillespie.
I would even had settled for correspondence with Bonni, fortunate as I was to have had such exchanges with Paul Petersen, Jay-Jay Solari and Lonnie Burr.
Bonni was such a part of my childhood and all of these decades later her passing reminds me of that bond.
My sympathy to her family, friends and (other) fans.

So very sad to hear about the passing of one of the original Mouseketeer. May the Almighty God in the Heavens comfort your grieving hearts with His peace and loving kindness and peace forever. What a wonderful legacy Bonni left behind.

I grew up idolizing her and her singing. She changed my life for the better, and I participated in musicals and plays in junior high and high school because of her. I have so many great memories of her. I send my sincere condolences to her family , and I am praying that the God of all comfort provides them with strength and peace of mind during this difficult time.
