Paula Kaye Bonar

My darling niece. I loved her so much. She was a great family member, enjoyed life, and truly loved us all.

Shocked to hear the news today that you are gone. Paula, your joy was infectious. Loved meeting you at the `neighbor gate´ between our properties to talk about chickens or kids or to pass eggs to each other or swap cookies at Christmas. We will all miss your kindness and profound courage.
You and Doug have been great neighbors and we are praying for your family during this goodbye time.

In 1980 I was blessed to be added to the Capers family and there you were my teenage niece who was nicknamed "Putzer" by her grandfather Mooch and then that was what I called you.

You and Pooh Bear would have these big smiles, natural to you and she must had smiled right back. We all know your love for your many animals and my go to person in time of need with my dog help but Chicko traveled with you from Hopedale to Akron to Chicago to Florida and then the donkey you found as a pasture friend.

I was always so very happy you stopped to see Aunt Joyce and Uncle Tony when you were in Hopedale and when we came to Florida Sunday was family dinner and that filled my heart.

Doug, Sandi, family and friends as the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends sharing the many memorable gifts she gave to everyone.

We wanted and prayed for her miracle but in reality Putzer got her miracle and is in the presence of our Lord.

I regret not having more time with you and not getting here in time to see you one more time but it is always God´s plan and has been from the time he created you in mom´s womb.

June 26,2025 was the last time I saw Putzer. She was in Ohio for many reasons but for us it was our family reunion. She did not feel well that day but of course she was doing her best to push on. This is my last picture I took of Putzer.

I love you Putzer .

For over 20 years we were Besties (my FLA sister). I still thank the God/heavens for bringing you into my life..
It´s hard in the beginning, grief comes in waves. I long for 1 more talk, cocktails together; share in laughter, and the comfort that our friendship brought me. Now silence echos where you should be.
Even though heaven took you from us, your spirit, your smile will remain in all our hearts. Keeping cherrished memories forever. Loving and enjoying our friendship was 1 of my life´s most precious gifts until you meet me at heavens doors.

Remember Paula by living your life smiling. Love ya Sister

Paula you have left this world much too early but God has another Angel at his side. May your body rest in peace and your soul soar to heaven on the wings of Angels.

I was blessed to have such a loving and wonderful bonus mom, and someone to love all the people that I love. She was a wonderful person inside and out. I am grateful that she is no longer in pain because I know that she would have fought forever if it had been an option. I will miss her everyday.

I'll miss you Miss P

Paula´s light & love will always shine bright. Welcoming all, people & pets, into her home. We are blessed to now feel her footsteps next to us each day, her smile and warmth guide us all to live life happy. Love You Red, Dale & Jeanette

I am heartbroken to hear this... what a wonderful woman and friend she is to so many people. I remember First meeting her when the Chrome Divas came into my embroidery shop in Naples and ordered hats and halters and shirts for all GALS and having been a motorcycle rider myself (when I was younger) I made such a terrific connection with all the Divas! Our love goes out to the family, and family was everything to her, and hugging all your hearts, knowing we will all see Paula again one day, with love from Nancy and Joe Sustersic

Sandi Julius and I are so very sorry for your loss. You are in our prayers Mickie

I feel so blessed to have had Paula as my neighbor and friend. Even though it was only for a short while. She was such a light! May God bless her and keep her.

Our hearts are heavy as a star in the sky has gone out, but Heaven and Our Father has Paula. I am crying and smiling at the same time. Dawn and Chuck Warner

I met Paula when she came to work at T.I.P in Bensenville, Il. She still had Chico, and I will never forget the time we spent the day having "Glamour Shots".

Rest in peace Paula and I will see you again
