She was also an avid Bingo player, spending many nights of the week playing around the county, sometimes referred to as “Bingo Bonnie”. Mom enjoyed her routine, especially her weekly visits to Ahead of Hair for some pampering, and lunch to follow at Sharon’s Place Family Restaurant. We would like to send a special thank you to the staff at Glen Haven Manor for their friendship and care they showed our mother, and us, during her short stay. Visitation will be held 2-4 & 7-9 PM Friday in McLaren Funeral Home, Pictou.
