Dear Hat Girl Bonnie: We are so proud of the fight you put forth the past 3 years. God Bless you, as He must have other plans for you, your talents, spirit, dedication and loyalty. We will always be there for your beautiful daughter, Kelley and your Beloved Husband and our dear and loved friend, Rick, as he will miss you terribly for the rest of his life. You have forever left your magic touch on this wonderful person, so please support him as he will probably thrust himself into running and growing ABC (Angel Bonnie Corporation) into the success story you will be so proud of!! I will always remember the wonderful times we shared every Memmorial Day weekend in Pa. and later in the year in Texas. Thank you for bringing so much happiness to my Ricky. It was an honor knowing you in my life and I hope to meet you again in Heavon's "Meadow."



I love you, Bob Vesey

Oh how I will miss you, my friend. I will hold on to my memories of wonderful dinners in the meadow, our trip to Brimfield and our mutual love of books by Helen Hanff, especially 84 Charing Cross Road. I know you are now at peace and busy feeding all of the birds in heaven. I love you.
