Bonnie Kay Harkness

I am sorry to learn the Bonnie passed away. We worked together back in the 1980s at what was then First National Bank in Jackson, Mississippi. She was the dearest woman, I'm sad to say I lost track of her.

Bonnie lived fully with loving kindness, accompanied with compassion,
activism, persistence and resilience, she invested in those in need.
She lived her brilliance with wisdom. She offered her heart and her hand.
We cherish the memories she leaves for us.

She is in our hearts with a smile that meets the day.

I am so sorry about your sudden and tragic loss. I know Bonnie only from her smile and good cheer and welcoming attitude at Wednesday Morning Group. She will be missed there - and obviously her loss leaves a huge hole in your hearts. In reading her obituary it was clear she was an extraordinary woman who made a difference in the world. I hope memories help bring you comfort at this time. Please take care. Lisa Stark

Bonnie was a kind and beautiful human being; she will be royally missed by everyone with whom she came in contact.

I went to school with Bonnie at Caldwell in Columbus MS

She was a very good friend of mine and many many other.
We were in many classes together

Bonnie's smile and sweet personality graced many people.

Although I have not seen her in many years she has been fondly remembered by me in my school years.

I am so saddened by her passing
Quite a shock.

It is fantastic to see several Caldwell classmates comment on Bonnie.

Extremely saddened our prayers are for entire family and friends
May her soul rest in peace.

I am so very sorry for her loving family and friends for this terrible loss. She was such a special person. I got to know Bonnie when she lived in Chicago. She became a dear friend. We enjoyed working together on the Save Abandoned Babies Foundation, sharing Book Club, Happy Hours, ... and in so many other ways. She will be missed by many for so many reasons.

Bonnie had such a big and giving heart that when I heard the very sad
news I just figured she just wore it out. She was always so loving and
caring. Also, Bonnie was just beautiful inside and out.

Bonnie was my best friend during senior year of high school and was my roommate at Ole Miss in Room 232 New Dorm. We shared many good times, problems, giggles, and a few escapades. Life happened and we grew apart but I always have loved her. In fact, I still have a musical figurine that she gave me on a shelf in my house. I kept it for 50 years because she gave it to me. Not knowing anything was wrong, I stood and looked at it last week with sweet thoughts of Bonnie. This will not end now.
Your hearts must be shattered and I feel so deeply for you.All of you are in my thoughts. Grief is hard but your mom loved you so and you were her greatest work.
