Bonnie was a much-beloved member at Topeka's Central Presbyterian Church.  Everyone in the church, myself included, thought very highly and fondly of Bonnie.  She was a delightful person and a fine Christian lady who lived her faith.  We already miss her!

Dear G.G., 
It's hard to say how much you've done for me since I was little, and I'm not sure I told you enough times that I was so happy to have you in my life. I'm still tickled by the thought of the stories you used to tell about when you took care of me as a baby, and by the memories of the trips I took with Grammy and Grace to go visit you in Kansas.  
I'll miss hearing you laugh over the phone, and asking you questions about your life. I get the feeling sometimes that there was much more I could have asked about. I wish I could write you one more letter besides this one, just so I could have the pleasure of reading one more from you. 
I wish I could be there today to wish you goodbye, but like before, I'm a little too far away. I suppose I'll just have to wait for the next time we say hello instead. I hope it's not a long wait for you-- it sure will be for me.  

With Love, 
Your Great-Granddaughter,  
Erica

I attend Bonnie's church in Topeka, and I can truly say that Bonnie was a joy to everybody she came in contact with.  Her smile, laugh, culinary abilities (potato salad, especially),  and service to others will always be remembered.  We all loved her a lot!  She was a wonderful witness for Christ, and will be missed greatly.  I know there was great happiness when she entered Heaven and met her loved ones.

To Bonnie's whole family:  Sorry for your loss. We will all miss her very much. We really enjoyed her while she lived in Topeka.  God Bless you all,   Cindy Garhan  From Central Presbyterian Church, Topeka ,KS>

Byron and Sharon sorry for the loss of a loved one.

So sorry to hear of your moms' passing.  God Bless you all.

Byron, Kerry, and Sharon, I am truly sorry to hear about your Mom's passing. At this difficult time I am praying for God's blessing of peace and comfort to be upon each of you.
Your friend always.

When Joe, Katie and I visited Aunt Wanda, it was always fun to talk to Bonne!  She was so sweet and always had lots of memories and stories to share.  She and Wanda were quite a pair!  Sorry to hear of her passing, but know she and Wanda are happy to be together again.  Blessings and Peace to all her loved ones!  Joe and Cheryl Myer

Grandma,  
I will surely miss you.  It was a blessing to have you in my life and Erica and Grace's lives.  They will definitely miss their G.G.  May you have the peace and serenity  you deserve. 
Love you always, 
Chris

Bonnie was our second grandma and will be deeply missed. Our hearts are breaking but I know she is smiling down on us.  Sending our love & prayers to her family & friends.

Rest in peace sweet Bonnie.  What marvelous adventures await you with our Lord and your loved ones.  Thank you for all the memories you left behind for us to cherish.  Lots of love sent your way.  Give my mom a hug for me. 
In Christ's love,

Your Mom will be missed,  God bles the Coleman family!!

We are so sorry to hear of Bonnie's death. We remember her from the Central Presbyterian Church choir, kind and sweet and fun and considerate and always, always cheerful. She brought joy into the room with her and found ways to bless and encourage those around her. We are grateful to have called her a friend.

We enjoyed so many years visiting back and forth with Lee and Bonnie.  We have many great memories raising our children and Duane has some thoughts working with Lee. We are sorry that we were not able to get together this summer with Bonnie and Sharon. We are very sad that Bonnie passed. 
Fondly,
Margaret and Duane

Our family will always remember the fond memories you gave us.  May God's blessings be upon you. Your loving brother Alvin and Darlene Rea

We are so sad to hear about Bonnie. One of the many cousins  from that generation that were so wonderful. Many fond memories of Bonnie and Aunt Wanda and their adventures. We will miss her dearly. Love to all the family.

What a blessing it is to call you my grandma. So many memories will remain forever.  You always had deep desire to be with your family. You talked and boasted about your children and grandchildren often. Heaven gained a beautiful angel. I love you and miss you.

We are sorry to hear about your loss.
Our deepest sympathy to the Coleman family.

Mom, you lived a full life and left us without having any regrets. Say hi to all our loved ones for me and tell them we will be there to see them soon. You will always be in our hearts and memories, we love you and miss you. Your Loving son, Kerry

You have always loved and been loved. Yours will be a legacy of fond memories and unquestioned love.

You are gone but not forgotten.

Love, Byron

Mom, you will always be in my heart.  I'm so happy you can be home with Daddy and Wanda.  I will be missing you.  Love, Sharon
