Bonnie Jo Lowe, born May 22, 1957, in Northern California, passed away in Bossier City, Louisiana, February 18, 2025, after a valiant battle with cancer. She was a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend whose kindness and generosity touched the lives of many.
Bonnie never met a stranger—everyone she encountered was simply a friend waiting to be made. She dedicated much of her career to customer service, where she found joy in helping others. Whether it was offering a listening ear, giving her last dollar to someone in need, or stopping to help a stranger on the side of the road, Bonnie’s heart knew no bounds.
She had a gift for making people feel heard and valued. From long phone calls with her daughters—especially when they were driving—to spontaneous conversations with strangers at the store who looked like they needed someone to talk to, Bonnie was always ready to listen. Her compassion and warmth made her a source of comfort to so many.
She shared a special bond with her daughter, Stephanie, always ready to tackle any project Stephanie presented, no matter how crazy or ambitious. Her adventurous spirit and willingness to take on challenges were a testament to her determination and love for life.
Bonnie’s greatest joy was her family. She is survived by her daughters, Jennifer Lowe and Stephanie Mersky (husband Steve); grandchildren Joe Mersky (Kim), Steven Mersky (Shiloh), Hayden Mersky, and Conner Mersky; and great-grandchildren Sophie Mersky and Jojo Mersky. She loved them all fiercely and unconditionally.
Her kindness, laughter, and love will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Bonnie’s legacy of generosity and compassion will live on in those who knew and loved her. While we will miss her every day, we find comfort in knowing she has been reunited with her sister, Golden, and we know she’s loving catching up with her.
A Celebration of Life for Bonnie will be held Saturday, February 22, 2025 beginning at 10am at Hill Crest Memorial Funeral Home. Friends are welcome to join the family prior to service time from 9:30am until 10am.
