Not sure what to say?

Thoughts and prayers for all effected by the loss of a good man . God just received another angel.

Mr. Bonnette was my English teacher at the junior high and was one of my favorite teachers. I can still recite some of the poems we had to memorize even after all these years. I have no doubt the quality of his teaching had a positive impact on many many students over the year - and I was certainly one of them. My sympathies to his family.

Mr. B was my gym teacher, football coach and driver's ed teacher, he was one of the most even- keeled people I have ever met in my life. As my life gets long in the tooth and I think of my young days Mr. B always brings a smile to my face because he was such a good person to have known.

Dear Tim and family so sad to hear of coach bonnets passing. He was a great coach teach and Driving instructor. I have many fond memories from junior high in gym class and football practices from his even and calm teaching manner.

Tim and family
I was saddened to hear of the passing of your father. I just moved into his subdivision and will be reminded of my 7th grade gym teacher " Mr.B" everytime I drive by his home.

We are sorry to read of Mr. Bonnette's passing. He was part of the Reeths-Puffer family and we enjoyed Bob's quiet sense of humor! Sincere sympathy to his entire family. May our Lord comfort you.

I am so sorry for the family, it really saddened me to read this. He was my English teacher, phys ed teacher and basketball coach during the early 1960s. It has been over fifty years but I can still recite "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening."....we all had to memorize it. Thank you, Mr. B, for all you did for us.

Dear Sena, family and friends,
Jerry and I send our prayers for comfort and peace as you share memories with each other. Bob made a positive difference in so many lives, a great guy!

Dear Sena and family,
I was so sorry to read of Bob's passing. I very much enjoyed teaching with Bob at RPJH. He truly was a genuinely nice person with a dry sense of humor. My condolences to you.
