Oh no! I am soooooooo sorry to hear about Bonnie passing away!
I live in New Zealand, and we used to correspond by email. We never actually met, but I was friends with another woman called Anne-Marie Pullman - who flew from NZ to live with Bonnie, Mike, Billy and Cassie in 2005 in Cresson . Actually the Same day Bonnie turned 50 (September the 1st)! I always enjoyed emailing and IM'ing Bonnie; she was very lovely and kind. Especially letting AMP stay with her. I only just googled her name; I had no idea she'd passed away 14 years ago. I knew she'd had heart troubles. So sorry for your loss.
DOUG.

Bill, Bill Jr. and Cassidi,
I got to know Bonnie when I worked at the Lilly Library. She was one of those people who you look forward to seeing. She would come in all smiles and when I asked how she was, she would tell me, but never complain. She would bring in Bill and Cassidi, and I got to watch them grow up. She loved her children and her husband. Bill, you would come in with her, and it was so clear how much you loved each other. I hope all your wonderful memories will help you through this time. God Bless, Nadine Rodgers.
