I have so many fond memories of Bonnie, and all the wonderful Purcell family, and I'm so sad to learn of her passing. I loved this family, and loved their amazing, deep faith in the Lord. I loved working with Ginnie and Shirley Garner at the Norwalk Truck Lines. Rest in Peace Bonnie, love and prayers to all her family.
