Bonnie loved animals, she always had a dog, and strays always seemed to find her place of residence, for animals always had a home with her, her two favorite fur babies were Chloe and Teddy.
Bonnie was a member of the Justice Tabernacle Church where she enjoyed listening to the choir and soloists and hearing the message of the gospel.
