Bonnie made my childhood special at our savior! She has always been a favorite part of return trips home to see mom and knowing she was waiting for me on Sunday with that smile and a killer hug!

I grew up, like so many children, in Sunday school at Our Savior and have fond memories of seeing Bonnie with her welcoming smile every week.
