Not sure what to say?

To the family of Vonnie, It has been many years since I met Vonnie, way back in the 60's when my family moved to Channel Dr. We had a great time even though she was 2 yrs younger than me.

She was always so kind, patient and loving. I am sorry that we lost track of each other, so many years ago. In the 70's my son Bobby Brady played...

I was so saddened and surprised to hear that Vonnie had past away. I was a grade behind her, but remember her well at Will Rodgers,Cabrillo and Ventura High school.
The last time I saw Vonnie was when she was working at Longs and I had no idea that she was ill. She was just as beautiful and just as sweet as always.
