Her children remember her as a kind, generous, smart, funny wonderful mother who encouraged them to pursue their goals. She loved spending time with her children and grandchildren watching movies, spending time at the family cabin, and playing board games.
She was a wonderful individual who loved Jesus and who was passionate about making him known. In 1979 she accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior. She was an active and dedicated member of her women’s bible studies and loved fellowship and being in church.
Bonnie was so kind to others, always thought of and put others before herself. She made people feel loved and listened to. Her favorite verse was Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope”
