I will always remember meeting at Metrichs during our High School days  then walking to catch the New Lots Bus to go home.  Thanks for the High School  and after High School memories my friend/sister.❤️. Love you forever, 
  Cheryl Mitchell-Hammond

Adam and Melissa attended P.S. 26, a neighborhood school in Fresh Meadows along with two of my sons. Ryan and Marc.  There were times after school that Adam would come over to play with Ryan.  I remember telling Bonnie that no one made Ryan laugh like Adam.  He was always so funny and happy go lucky.  Their friendship continues to this day.
There were summer nights when we would take a beach chair to a park to see Rick and the  Impalas perform.  We always had the best time.  Their voices and music made for a magical summer evening.
To Melissa and Adam, losing both parents within two days requires a lot of strength to get through this difficult time.  I hope your happy memories will make you smile and ease your pain.
Sending love and prayers,
Rhonda

My cousin Bonnie is now with her other cousins Norman and Eddie who all grew up together and I'm sure they will take care of each other.  I was with her when her dad my uncle passed and comforted her and she did the same for me when my mom passed.  We lost touch for a long time but found each other again the last few years and enjoyed talking especially about the old days.  I'll miss her.

Bonnie and I were close friends when Adam and Dean were young. As time passed we both went back to work. We reconnected when Melissa was driving past my home and honked her horn while I was standing on the porch. Bonnie in the car. We started talking,  exchanged phone numbers and we’ve been close friends ever since. I always enjoyed my time with Bonnie going food shopping and to Kohls.  Bonnie had a good heart and a very sweet personality. I will miss her.

No one could’ve asked for a better aunt. Aunt Bonnie was warm and funny and beautiful. I have the best memories of our sleepovers when we were kids. Those were the best times. Melissa would braid my hair, Adam would do impressions, Aunt Bonnie would always give us Flinstone vitamins and there were endless games. Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Ricky were always so proud of whatever Melissa and Adam ever did. 
I will never forget my Aunt Bonnie and her smile and the way she loved all of us. I will miss her so much.

Melissa and Adam, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Bonnie was such a good friend to me when we worked together on Low 3. I loved to walk onto the unit and see her big smile, and she could always make me laugh. She was like a second Mom when I was  stressed, and she was so kind to the patients. I loved catching up with her about the Yankees whenever we could spare a minute from our work, she had to be one of the biggest fans ever. May her memory be a blessing, because she made the world better just by being in it.  With love & sympathy, Patricia Plunkett
