I was saddened to read that Bonnie had passed away. I worked with her for years at the School District. I had never met a harder working person in the 32 years I worked there. Always a big smile and a sparkle in her eye when you would stop into see her. I missed her when I retired from there and would only see her in passing at the Short Stop in the mornings on our way to work. Stew, My heart goes out to you and the rest of your family. I know what a great loss this is. My God bless you, walk with you and guide you in this time of sorrow. The memories we hold are our greatest treasure as we live life after the loss of a loved one. May your memories be fresh in your heart now and always.

Schmidt Family,
So sorry to hear of Bonnie’s passing, we went to grade school through high school together and she was a very nice friend and neighbor growing up. She was way to young to pass on and I hope she is at peace from her illness.
God Bless your family,

I have such great memories of Bonnie from high school. Her sweet smile and sparkling eyes, the year or two where I was sort of a big brother to her and Rhonda. So sorry she was taken so young.
