Bonnie was a women whose love of life and family defined who she was. She
appreciated all she had and said daily that she was the luckiest woman in
the world. She never expected or asked for more. Her big heart always made
her one of the first people to step up and help someone when they needed it.
Bonnie’s outgoing and vivacious personality made her the life of any social
event and she enjoyed it so much more if surrounded by her family. It was
well known amongst her many friends that her family and particularly her
grandchildren, were her world. She did her best to make sure she was there
for every event no matter how small.
Bonnie worked the last few years of her life as a home support worker and in
this found a special calling that her patience, kindness and compassion
allowed her to love an entirely new family. These same traits also made her
beloved by many of her grandchildren’s friends as a faithful cheerleader at
every hockey game she could make.
If there was one lesson in life that Bonnie would hope for everyone she knew
to learn and live…it would be keep smiling! The same way she lived her life
to the very end.
