"Bonnie’s legacy as a loving mother, passionate pet parent, caring friend and work colleague, was a model of resilience through many life challenges – she will forever live on in our memories. She loved pets, especially her cats, nature, gardening, and history. Her adventurous spirit revealed itself in her younger years through fishing, canoeing, camping, and hunting. As we come together to honor her remarkable life, we invite friends and loved ones to celebrate the love and memories we shared."
