Just found out too late this morning about the home going of Aunt Bonnie. We would surely have come to the funeral. She was so special to us, my brothers and I growing up. She taught me as a boy how to fold a box at her and V.O.’s grocery store. Will never forget that. I’m sad because all her family and friends will miss her, but I rejoice because now she is face to face with JESUS CHRIST. One day and maybe very soon we will be with her. “O death, where is thy sting O grave, where is thy victory” 1 Corinthians 15:55. We love you!
