I am so sorry for your loss. Bonnie was such a sweetheart! She always had a compliment for me regarding the music at Hope UCC where I am the Music Director. She was so supportive and encouraging. I will miss her smiling face. Rest in peace, beautiful lady!

I have many fond memories of laughter and joy that I'll never forget and I can't remember a single time Bonnie didn't have a smile on her face when we were together. She was loved immensely and will be missed greatly by all of us.

Bonnie was my second mom. My best friend Carols mom. She included me in family trips, meals (she always had the best snacks) and lots of sleep overs. Later in life I enjoyed visiting her in Florida. She was kind and generous and always made me feel like part of the family. I loved her and will miss her❤.
