Just a COOL down to earth person. I remember watching many episodes of Colombo with him... and he would narrate the show, but that was COOL. He was a 49er but I never held that against him. I Remember sitting with him at family functions.... I would seek him out, or he would seek me out. I remember watching many Super Bowls with him and talking about everything regarding life. A fan of soccer and of all sports... A fan of Luther Vandross.... but who isn't . At times he would even try to sing a Lutther song, but who doesn't try to sing a Luther song at one time or another. I don't use the word Uncle with just everybody, but this wasn't just anyone. This is my Uncle, friend, and family. There is only a few people that can call me JUNE. Uncle Bonnie is one of those people. When he said it you could feel the sincerity in his voice.
