“I am so sorry to hear of Bonnie’s passing. I met Bonnie at SMA “79” and enjoyed so much the 4 wonderful high school years of laughter and fun with her and the “girls”. She always had a smile on her face and was so willing to help fellow classmates. I pray that she is in peace and is still smiling. God Bless and know that Bonnie will always be remembered. Hold her memories close to your hearts and she will be close to you always. Sincerely, Brenda(Cooper)Ridgell”
