I love you Mama.
Precious hours that I spent with you are endearing to me.
Watching Hallmark movies...listening to Gospel songs... watching the birds.... such precious memories!
My favorite trip to the beach was when you and I looked for shells.
Heating your tea and sitting beside you was an honor.
You always were the picture of Jesus for me.
His Word was engrained in your heart.
The favorite photo I took of you was years ago: when Daddy was reading the Bible to you.
Your laugh was infectious and your smile lit up your eyes.
Your love for God influenced my children to walk with Him.
I will always love you.

most of all, i will miss her kisses, i will never forget the great impact of love she placed on each person and how easy it was to love her.
i'm so thankful i was able to witness the love she had for PapPap, and most of all i am truly grateful for the life they lived together. In every way that they could was spent seeking God and glorifying Him.
My whole life i wanted something like that. (what they had)
if You don't love Your spouse like The Bible tells us to, You aren't doing it right.
It was absolutely visible as to WHO was the captain of their lives as they grew together.
MeMe was so precious, so kind, humble, meek, tenderhearted and loving. It was mostly and basically absolutely impossible to pick anything that was dislikable about her. She didn't try to impress anyone, yet she tried to love in all she did.
i will miss singing around her and with her alone. Whether people think You sound good or bad, when being with her, You didn't have to sound "good enough"
she would either sing with You or listen intently.
i don't remember much of my childhood, but the best of it was whenever i was here with my MeMe and PapPap or adventuring around their own island. Still as i come here, i see a secret place as to where i can flee the world and feel the most safe. i don't feel the need to have to impress anyone or be someone else.
MeMe was such a strong woman that i knew i needed to name my first AND second car after her (lol)
i didn't look up to many people growing up, but MeMe and PapPap have always been my top influences. Their love was genuine and pure, not laced up or decorated to look good. i adored watching them look and talk to each other.
Her joy was contagious and so warm, i will so miss laughing with her and being unintentionally goofy♡
i am going to miss watching movies with my MeMe, i loved laughing and talking throughout each movie and looking over and looking at her so interested in what was going on.
i remember watching Judge Judy with her, getting hooked to Anne of Green Gables, cooking/baking and going to fashion bug whenever we couldn't afford anything. Good Will trips were always so fun and interesting!
Her heart for those in need was so pure and beautiful. Watching her be so kind to everyone and her heart for children (even animals) made me want to be a better person. Her kindness was so contagious.
i remember seeing many letters from children from Africa and asking her as a kid what and why and she told me about poor families that are sick and how we should want to help them out.
if i could do anything i wanted, i would rewind it all and go through everything all over again just to remember and take notes of great advice and go through those times i was able to spend with her.
Going through this, i pray that i may see the true importance of each life more than before and will be so much more desirable to tell others about Jesus. Life is but a vapor, my prayer is that through this funeral others will see the importance of eternity as well and will seek a true relationship with Christ, The Savior of the world.
Saying goodbye may be hard, but it's only temporary. i am so thankful that she KNEW and loved Jesus! i know where she is, there is no doubt about it. i can't wait to one day be where she is, and singing along and giving all glory and honor and praise to our Savior, The King of Kings and The Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ forever and ever, AMEN♡

Much love to you Uncle Homer, Melodye, Susie, Deb, Esther, and Heather and all your families. My memories of Aunt Bonnie are probably very similar to a lot of other memories of the cousins - gathering at the farm house with everyone when we came to visit, swinging and playing outside, the felt generosity of the house. I know she will be missed, but how awesome that she gets to whole and joyful in the presence of her Jesus.
Love you all. Monica

Meme was such an amazing inspiration of faith and love to all of those around her. She was kind-hearted, patient, and giving. I enjoyed watching TV shows like Monk or Diagnosis Murder with my Meme, and we had so many fun shared memories. I’m going to miss you, Meme.
Love, Canaan

Bonnie was a good sister with a giant heart. After the family moved back to the area I spent many, many hours at the round table with cups and cups of coffee and lots of talk. She had 1000 things to do as a wife and mom, but she always had time to be present and ears to listen. I will miss her.

I will forever hold Bonnie close to my heart! She was such an amazing person!! I wish that everyone could of met her just once to have a small piece of her smile or kind words. She taught me so much and just radiated positivity. She always made me feel special and I hope I had a chance to make her feel as beautiful outside as she was inside!! I will miss her so much but am thankful for the chance I had to meet her!!

So, how do you say goodbye to someone like my Meme, so sweet and caring, with the patience of Jesus? You can't, because she is not easy to let go of. As far back as I can remember, despite some health issues she had, Meme has always been like a second Mom to me. Don't get me wrong, she still spoiled us kids with tons of cookies and ice cream, but she always gave us more of what we needed.
Going to Meme & PapPap's house was more of a sanctuary. You could definitely go there to visit, but the times when it meant the most is when I could walk in, after my worst days, and forget all my problems. Meme would say "come give Meme kisses," (and she LOVED her kisses) then I could just sit for hours with her, just holding her hand, resting my head on her pillow with her, and watching something on TV. It was home. She made it home. With her Non-judgmental, words of wisdom, reviewing the craziest worst-case scenarios, then helped me find peace, through Bible scriptures.
And, oh, her food! She liked cooking so much and always made the best stuff. My favorite, of course, being her mac & cheese, which I helped her make, more than once, but stupidly never got the recipe for. I remember there being lots of butter, and Velveeta.
Then there were all of us, the grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She always treated us the same, not showing preferences, but loved us all, unconditionally. She found so much joy in talking with us about our lives. She would make sure that she told us, as often as she could, that she loved us, and missed us, then gave us more kisses...so many kisses...so much love. She didn't hate anyone, or at least if she did, she never shared it.
So, how do you say goodbye to someone like my Meme, so sweet and caring, with the patience of Jesus? You can't, because she is in us and has taught us most of what we know, and has been one of the greatest examples of Christ in my life. All I know is that I will see her someday, in Paradise. And I can't wait for that day. I love you Meme.

Bonnie was a Godly woman with such a sweet soul. She had a gentle, soothing, voice and a heart full of love. She was my mom’s TRUE best friend. I have such good memories of going to Bonnie and Homers every Sunday when I was young. I will always cherish those memories.
