I’m so saddened by the passing of Bonnie. She was a wonderful lady! I will though have a part of her with me daily since I got my little Sweet Pea (Pomeranian) from her 11 years ago. She had made many lives happy with her puppies. Dawn and Traci, I want you to know that I would be there for the service if I weren’t in California. I love and miss you both. God Bless You
Fun, Loving, Cheerful, Spunky, always smiling this is Bonnie and she will forever be in our hearts. We miss you, Love ya and will see you when we see you later.
SKOL VIKINGS!
Bonnie was the type of Lady to make anyone feel as if they’ve known her for a long time.
We rented her farm land and I would visit with her once in a while just a joy to be around.
She loved Life and would keep busy, always going and doing..
She will be greatly missed and is Loved by so many..
I never met Bonnie, but I know her daughter Dawn Busch. Knowing Dawn assures me that the Lord will take excellent care of her mother in heaven.
My heart and prayers go out to the entire family!
