I had the joy of getting to know Bonnie over the years after I married Mary.  She was such a positive person.  Always up for a good conversation and learning new things.  She would take an interest in your concerns.  And she was always looking to help.  We visited her in hospital, and she was busy making notes on helping them improve their system.  Lot of fun and a blessing!

Mrs.Thompson,  thank you for supporting me and my family when my father died in 1966. I was a senior at Lincoln Hiigh School, when my father died, you convinced me to return to school. You came to my house to talk to me. You gave a donation in my father's name to be Am. Cancer Society. You were a beautiful person. RIP, I will not forget you, I graduated 1967. TY

Bonnie, you are now in a better place.  Our Class of ‘66 were so honored to have you attend our 45th Class Reunion on 11/12/2011. You even danced with a few of us and spoke such kind words to our group.  I will include some pics from that wonderful unforgettable evening. RIP Pink Lady
