I've known Bonnie all my total life. We were neighbors at one time and she used to babysit my sis and myself. Later in life I did her income tax returns for a lot of years. I was shocked when I found out that she had passed away.

I remember Bonnie so well from when I lived in Bennett. Carla was my best friend and we lived very close, so I saw her often. Bonnie was always nice to me and I looked up to her. I recognized her picture in her obit, she looked just like I remembered. I'm sorry for your loss, Carla, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
