Bonnie had a way of making everyone she knew... feel SPECIAL every time you met. Truly, it was a treat to be a FRIEND of hers and Lord knows she had a legion. Memories distant of fun-filled visits and interesting afternoons at “THE ROCK" in Packanack Lake come back to me. The solemn day I was asked by Bonnie to be pallbearer for her fine BROTHER GARY -- my friend, are STILL after more than fifty years very poignant and meaningful to me. With the loss of each family member & friend this World turns a tad bitter and no mistake… I know, I will miss "bumping into" Bonnie in times ahead… but… I am more than fairly confident that whenever Bonnie makes a cameo on the movie screen of my mind -- just take a look at me, cuz I'll be wearing a BIG TIME SMILE! Yes, indeed — she was “The Indomitable Bonnie Mergenthaler!” God Bless You + BONNIE + Rest In Peace
