Our heart is deeply saddened by the passing of Aunt Bonnie. We first met her in 2000 through her niece Shun, and from that day forward she graciously welcomed my husband, Kelly, and me into her family. She was a kind and gentle soul, always wearing a smile and bringing joy to those around her. My heartfelt condolences go out to her children and especially to her sister, Ada. Aunt Bonnie's presence will be deeply missed but her memory will live on in our hearts.
