Stephen M. Bonnell

Steve and I set the grading curve of every Science class we attended at Moreno Valley High School from 1970 to 1974 (sorry, everyone else!) and we were always lab partners. We had too much fun in those classes and we always cracked each other up. Such great memories and such a fun guy.

To Lisa and Family, I would consider Steve my best friend in high school and coincidentally we both attended Cal Poly Pomona. I had no idea he had passed. I apologize for this belated letter of condolence. I have many memories and tales to tell. He may have told you of the spelling bee we managed to avoid, at great length, in high school. Perhaps he told of his stint as the morning student announcer he called himself the silver esophagus. I knew your mother as well and hope she is doing well.

To the Bonnell family ~

I was so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. We were classmates from 6th-12th grades and Steve was one of those people that I frequently thought of over the years wondering what he was up to.

Again, I am so sorry for your loss. With sympathy ~

Linda and Family,
We were so saddened to hear of Steve's untimely passing. We will certainly miss his intelligent and friendly commentary during the ADK hikes. May you all derive comfort from your memories.

Dear Linda and Family,

I was so sorry to hear of Steve's passing this week. I always enjoyed his stories of past experiences on the ADK hikes. May the many memories you have of your life with Steve sustain you at such a difficult time.

Please accept our deepest sympathy for you and your family. We would like to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers as you go through this difficult time. We appreciated having Steve as the church moderator to work with our office. He always seemed willing to try to meet our needs and very helpful if we had questions or concerns.

Our prayers are for you and your family,
From the Youth for Christ Office

Steve, your students and colleagues will miss you from the halls of Science I. My condolences to Linda and the family; please know that Steve's memory will remain in our hearts.

Dear Linda, Jennifer & Family,

Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. Everyone at the Center enjoyed & will miss Steve.

Please accept our condolences and know our thoughts are with all of you. We were deeply saddened to learn of your husband and dad's passing.

Linda, Jenny, Mary Eve and Seth (and Laura),

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of your dear husband and father. Laura, Jordan, Joshua and I were so fortunate to have visited with Linda and Steve in August of this year. God has him now - wonderful for him, but sad for us. The photo of him that you selected on this page is a good one. His eyes are smiling along with his face. :o)

May God bless you all.

Uncle David

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Please accept my condolences.

Jennifer, Linda and Family. I was so sorry to hear about your loss. May God Bless you at this difficult time.

So sad to hear about your passing at such a young age. God bless you and your family. Rest in Peace.
