Bonnie L. Berry age 85 of Dardanelle, passed away Thursday, October 9, 2025 at Saint Mary's Regional Medical Center. She was born March 2, 1940 in Plainview, Arkansas to the late Arthur Lee Baker and Nettie Mae Carrie Baker. Bonnie was a member of the Apostolic Lighthouse Church of Dardanelle and she was preceded in death by her parents and her siblings, Ed, Paul, John, Victor, Lois, Frankie and Mae.

Granny was an amazing woman – strong in faith, and full of love. She was a devoted wife, a caring mother, a loving sister, and the best Granny. She was famous for her homemade Ugly Duckling and chocolate cakes. But more than her desserts, Granny was known for her unwavering faith. She was a true prayer warrior. Family and friends always knew they could call Granny when they needed prayer, because she had a direct line to God. Her faith was steady and powerful – a reflection of the deep love she carried for others. Though we'll miss her dearly, her spirit and her prayers will forever surround us.

Survivors include her husband of 46 years, LC Berry; four children, Debbie Smith, Gail Hill, David Hutchins (Michelle), Mary Rodgers (Butch); one brother, Kenneth Baker; eight grandchildren, Brandon, Robert, Zack, Crystal, Brenda, Chris, Tiffany, Paul; eight great grandchildren and one great great grandchild.

Memorial services will be held at 2:00P.M., Tuesday, October 14, 2025 at the Apostolic Lighthouse Church in Dardanelle with Rev. Gary Anderson and Rev. Dan Schreckhise officiating.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Tupelo Children's Mansion Inc., 1801 East Main Street, Tupelo, MS 38804.
