Bonnie had a gentle spirit Bonnie loved God and showed His love to others in being the person she was. I met Bonnie in a group of women who met regularly to support one another and pray. Although it was long ago the bonds that we formed are still strong today Although Bonnie is not present here I know that her prayers and love will go on. My prayers and love go out to all who will miss her. - Posted by: Gloria Bain (Friend from women's group ) on: Feb 09, 2016

I met Bonnie when our children were little. We spent many great times together at Clear Lake and in Winnipeg. She was an incredibly kind, gentle, and loving friend. We also worked at the university together. We lost touch a few years ago when she moved out of the house. I will cherish find memories and send sincere condolences to Jennifer, Erin, Stephen and Nicholas. - Posted by: Shellie Johannesson (Friend) on: Feb 09, 2016
