"My sympathy and prayers to all of Bonnie's family. Soo sad to hear of her death. Bonnie and I were great friends at Hamilton Business College and lost track of each other over the years. She was wonderful person and friend. I can still hear that giggle of hers. May the wonderful memories of her help each of you in the days ahead. I will be making a donation to Toys for Tots in her memory. Love to all ... Sheryl Thomsen (Heitland) Hinton"
