Bonnie Dorris Obituary
Bonnie's journey began in Appleton, Wisconsin where she attended St. Matthew Lutheran School and Fox Valley Lutheran High School. She furthered her education at Dr. Martin Luther College in New Ulm, Minnesota, which set the foundation for her lifelong commitment to Christian service. After college, Bonnie taught at East Fork Apache Ministries in Arizona, which sparked her passion for helping others and sharing her faith. Bonnie remained in Arizona after marrying and starting a family. Throughout her life, Bonnie held various roles, but her true calling was in real estate. She started her own real estate business, where she found joy in meeting and assisting people in finding their homes.
Bonnie was a devout Christian who remained dedicated to her faith throughout her life. She was an active member of her church community, where she loved to sing and share the message of her Savior with others.
Her hobbies included singing, traveling, visiting family and friends, and making cherished memories with her husband, Duane "Lucky" Glover. Bonnie's greatest joy was telling others about Jesus. Bonnie loved flowers and often said they made her happy.
Bonnie is survived by her loving husband, Lucky; her children, Matthew McMillion (AZ), Misti Dorris (AZ), Mindy (Travis) Wills (NM), stepson Duane Jr. (Melissa) Glover (CO), and stepdaughter Melissa Glover (CO). She was a cherished grandmother, step-grandmother, and great-grandmother. Bonnie also leaves behind her siblings Edward Price (AZ), Greg Price (WI), Dan (Melissa) Price (WI), Alan (Sandi) Price (FL), Conroy (Lisa) Price (WI), and Frances Price (TX).
She was preceded in death by her parents, Edward and Juanita Price; her grandparents, George and Esther Price, and Leo and Bertha Zaddack; siblings Lee Price and Heather Price; and her son, Martin Dorris.
A service to celebrate Bonnie's life is pending in Payson, AZ. Bonnie's life was a testament to her loving nature and her firm believe in the power of faith and community. Her legacy will live on through the many lives she touched.
