Lilly "Bonnie" Vancamp, 87 of Benton, Kentucky passed away peacefully at her home with her little dog Missy and her caregiver, Samatha, by her side holding her hand.
Lilly "Bonnie" was born on September 18, 1937 to the late Rex and Virgie Beam.
Lilly loved to be outside. She had a green thumb when it came to growing her garden and could grow some of the biggest plants. She loved to mow her yard and ride her lawn mower to go visit her neighbors. Lilly enjoyed spending time with her little dog, Missy and keeping the neighborhood kids who she made waffles with a side of M&M's for. She loved to cook by throwing different things together and having some of her neighbors try it. She enjoyed watching Westen's, especially her favorite Gunsmoke.
Lilly is survived by her daughter, Cindy Wright (John) of Bay Point, California; son, Steven Vancamp of Benton, Kentucky; and her grandchildren of Bay Point, California.
Lilly was preceded in death by her husband, Norman Vancamp; her parents; and daughter-in-law, Lorrie Vancamp.
