Not sure what to say?

Hi. I'm so sorry. I just found out about Bonnie. I had been thinking of her recently and all the good times we had fixing her computer. I had been trying to remember her last name and it just popped into my head and i decided to look her up and discovered her passing. She was such a nice person and so full of wisdom and Love. Just a joy and a blessing to be around. I'm So sorry for you all's loss. She will be dearly missed. And u all are such a wonderful sweet family. She did a wonderful job...

To the family of Bonnie. I had the pleasure of meeting her when she was a teacher to one of my daughters in Headstart. She showed me love whenever I came to the Center to check on my daughters. I would often volunteer my services, and she made me feel welcome. Bonnie will be missed by the many students she taught, and the parents of those children.
