Bonnie loved to travel and see new places whenever she could and especially loved spending time with her daughter Aeron and her husband Jamie. Christmas was her favorite time of year and she looked forward to the holidays with her family and friends. She was a caring, loving and thoughtful person who always wanted people to enjoy life, always making sure that others were looked after before herself, even strangers.
