Bonita's wish was for her family to celebrate her life by gathering, playing "oldies" music, which she preferred, and enjoying memories together. The family will celebrate her life at a private gathering. Bonnie will be dearly missed by many friends, family, and neighbors.

If you like, you can honor Bonnie by a donation to a charity or church of your choice. Moreso, she would want you to pay kindness forward and spend time enjoying the company of friends and family.
