      I am imagining the fabulous reunion Bonnie and Delbert are having right now! What an awesome lady she is ( using present tense, since she is still being awesome, just in her new home!) Rod and I have many memories that include Delbert playing his guitar and the 3 of us singing. Bonnie would come along when we practiced and was such an encouragement in her own, sweet way. Occasionally, she would surprise me with a witty comeback when Delbert would try to impose his opinion on her! What a light she is…so very honored to have known her. Both Rod and I send our deepest condolences and prayers for strength and comfort to each family member who will miss her…she will be remembered always!.
