Hi Cynthia and family. I was so sorry to hear of Bonnie Jeans passing. I am so sorry we won't be able to be at her service. Mom isn't able to travel that far.
I have so many memories of Bonnie Jean through the years. As a child I remember staying at her house and swimming . I remember her sewing dance costumes, her little dog, her taking Grandma and I peach picking. I remember her sitting at Grandmas dining room table so many times.
I remember taking the MegaBus to Memphis and visiting her . She was a gracious host.
So many fun times . So blessed to have those memories.
I loved her phone calls. She would call to just check on our family in FL if she heard there had been a hurricane. I'd get the update of her family too.
I remember her visits to Conyers a few times too.
I pray that all of the precious memories you all hold so deeply in your hearts will bring you all joy, peace and comfort now and in the future.
Sending our love and prayers from GA!
We love you all!
Prayers for her family and friends. She was a fellow social worker when I worked at DCFS .
