Bonnie D. Vojtek, age 77, of Bridgeport, beloved wife of Michael J. Vojtek, passed away on Saturday April 7, 2018. Bonnie was born March 16, 1941 in Bridgeport, CT to the late Sanford and Lola Randall and has been a lifelong area resident. Bonnie graduated from Central High School in 1959. After graduating, Bonnie joined her father in the family oil business, Randall Oil Company. After gaining experience alongside her father, Bonnie then took full control of the company. Later she sold the company and began working at the Southern CT Gas Company as a dispatcher. Bonnie spent 25 years with the gas company, creating many memories and long-lasting bonds, none more special than the one with her husband Michael who she wed in 1980.
Bonnie was an active member of the community; in the seventies, she was heavily involved in the North End Little League, serving as a coach, team mom, and board member. During her time with Little League, Bonnie and close friend Dottie Garamella worked to establish the first concession stand in North End Little League at Blackham Elementary school. More recently, Bonnie and a neighbor started a neighborhood watch program in their community, keeping all informed while maintaining a safe environment for all. She was an amazing listener; a sounding board for all family and friends.
Bonnie was also an avid reader who loved to garden, travel, and spend time with her family. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend who will be deeply missed. Bonnie is survived by her husband Michael J. Vojtek, children, Robert Purciello, Cheryl Mucherino, and Mark Vojtek, grandchildren, Patrick and wife Ana, Bobby, Brittany, Ashley, Ryan, Samantha, Alexis, Mark, Stephanie, and Matthew.
