My family leaves our condolences to Bonnie’s family. We knew Bonnie very well from years back in School as we were growing up in Laramie, many memory’s come to mind from way back in years, most of my family have passed away, except my oldest sister JoAn is still with us. She is now at peace and with other family members……God Bless to all
