I didn’t know Bonnie for very long. I knew from the moment I meet her that she was a straight shooter and told it like it was. It took her a while to warm up to you but once she had she treated you like one of her own. She was well liked by many people, that was evident by the many people who gathered at the table when she came to have lunch with her daughter on Fridays. I was honored to be included in that group. I wish to thank her daughters Doe and Fawn and her great granddaughter Summer for sharing their mother and great grandmother with me. Bonnie was a very special lady and I’m glad I got to know her even if it was for just a short time. My thoughts are with each and every family member.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Gaddis
