Bonnie Jean Osborne

She was a wonderful person.

Bonnie was a spark in the GVA group gatherings. She always came in with a smile and a good word. She was kind and an outstanding artist. Bonnie is loved and is missed.

Bonnie was a truly sweet woman. Such a marvelous painter. I admired her and her work. Thank you Bonnie for your beautiful art.

I always remember Bonnie as a friendly and loving person.

So sorry to hear of the loss of Bonnie... Bonnie was so kind, helpful and had such a big warm heart for us all. I worked with her on some church photos for one of the LUMC church directories. She had a great attitude and gave me some awesome ideas. I am so thankful and grateful for her shining light and bright smile. We love and miss you!

So sorry about to hear of bonnie's demise, She was a wonderful person and I always enjoyed knowing and teaching her. She was a joy and will be missed.

I knew Bonnie from Jim Markel's pastel class that we took together and then from our time in GVA. I have missed not seeing her the last couple years. She was a warm, sweet person and a really good landscape pastel artist.

I knew Bonnie through GVA. She was a bright shining star among us. We loved her. She was always so nice to hang around with and talk about art.

Although I've never met any of Bonnie's family or her husband, I spent time with Bonnie through GVA. I went on a retreat with Bonnie, Kathleen Kalinowski and a few others. During this retreat up to Northern Michigan I got to know Bonnie even better. We had the most lovely experience painting together in the warmth of the Sunshine in the Fall. It was there she told me how she walked by her home ,(before she even met her husband) she dreamed of living in that house. Dreams really do come...
