FONDA ST. PAUL Obituary

ST. PAUL--Fonda. On July 1, 2023 in Los An-geles, the Angels came to fly my beautiful, talented and deeply loved wife, Fonda St. Paul, on the wings of golden butterflies, to the Rainbow Bridge, to once again unite her with her beloved Pug babies, forever and ever. Dancer, singer, author, producer and the best Italian cook ever, she did it all with grace, style and elegance. Watching her in the kitchen, cooking up a storm, dressed to the nines, was truly something to behold. She was so alive, so caring and so courageous, she was the light in the darkness. So many friends and family were touched by her love and generosity, so many memories of her beautiful smiling face. I was privileged to call myself her husband. She was the best part of me. She was the best part of this world. Fonda was the sun, the moon, and the stars to our little family, and I see her every day when I'm holding Lily Jean and Monty. I see their eyes searching for Mommy and I hold them closer and tell them "you will be with her again, forever and ever." For 17 years we shared laughter and tears and each day, I was evermore in love with her. She gave me purpose, and so much more. Her laugh, her smile, her touch, filled me with a love I had never known. So alive, so caring, that was the magnificent being that she was. She had that New York state of mind. At the end I held her as I whispered to her "wherever you go, I will find you," and I will. May she find peace and comfort knowing that one day, our little family will once again be together forever. Foz, we love you with all our hearts, today, tomorrow, and for all time. Sandy Passman

Fonda and I shared many memories as friends at Hoover High School and also fellow kids from Greentown. I used to call her Fonda Angel and she called me Dougie Doll. Rest in Heavenly Peace Fonda Angel!
