Bonnie was a woman of tremendous strength. Anyone that knew Bonnie knew that her beauty was bold and courageous. She was a woman with a heart that was giving and loving. Bonnie lived a unique journey, one not meant for the weak. Her potential far exceeded the circumstances she was presented in her young, yet long life. At a very young age Bonnie forged her own path in modeling and fitness. She was envied for her renowned beauty and was known to draw every eye when she entered the room. Bonnie was very intelligent and excelled in school. She was also extremely strong and athletic and played softball. Anyone who knew Bonnie knew her beauty was endless. Her warm attitude and glowing personality burned brighter than any star in the night sky and could be seen by any that stopped to appreciate her. She had a fire in her heart more radiant then the sun shining down upon us. In her journey of life she continuously searched for God and tried to implement all his teachings given to her. She had three beautiful children that she loved and cared for so dearly. There wasn't a moment that went by that she didn't think about them and was proud to tell the world about how dear each of her three children were to her in their own unique ways. She was truly a beautiful woman, a loving mother, and kind heart to any that had been graced to have had her in her life.
