Elizabeth Ann Bonvin

Bets was born and raised in Dertiot MI. During her high school years the family moved to Syracuse NY where she graduated from Nottingham High School in 1948. She obtained her RN degree in 1951 from the University of Rochester.

In 1957 Bets married her best friend, Henri Bonvin, at St John Evangelist Church in Syracuse. Together they had the most wonderful 64 year adventure. They moved around the country due to Henri's career and everywhere that they called home Bets made life special with her fabulous cooking, beautifully cared for home and the kindness that she always extended to others. Later on, she and Henri enjoyed retired life in Atlanta GA and made many trips both abroad and locally, often accompanied by friends and family. As Henri would have said - they had a nice little life together.

She was preceeded in death by her husband Henri E. Bonvin Sr., son Henri E. Bonvin Jr., parents George Nelson and Mae Bernadette Lilygren and brothers John N.and Robert N. Lilygren.

She is survived by her daughter Janet Bonvin of Lexington GA, and niece Lynne (Rick) Blythe of The Villages FL.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Oglethorpe County public library or non monetary donations of kindness and compassion to others would be more appropriate because she gave so much of it to everyone.
