Bonnie and Alan were 2 of the first neighbors we met when we moved to the neighborhood. They immediately made us feel welcome. We loved spending time visiting with them both. Miss them.

We spent many dinners together along with Donna Rae and Ed Alsene. We had such a good time together. Bonnie was always here when I had surgery bringing food. Al and Jim played golf for many years together. Hugs and prayer to their family. Jim and Judy White

I had the privilege of being their doctor until my retirement. That led to a long term friendship. Al did the interview of my son who became an FBI agent. Alan said of Bonnie " she talks a mile a minute with gusts up to ninety!" That captures them both that led to a marriage of 71years. Great people.

Our deepest sympathies on Alan and Bonnie´s passing. We met them several years ago when we purchased the house next door. As we worked on making the house livable, Bonnie always made sure we had snacks and drinks and Alan shared stories of his time in the FBI. They were a very special couple. May they both rest in peace.
