Bonnie Mae (Beymer) Farley, 84, of Coggon, Iowa, passed away on Tuesday, August 16, 2022, at her home.

In agreement with her wishes, cremation has taken place. A celebration of Bonnie's life is being planned for a later date this month.

Bonnie was born on July 19, 1938, one of nine children to Carl and Isabel (Storjohann) Beymer in Denison, Iowa.

She met Robert Farley on a blind date, and they were soon married on April 6, 1955. They had five children, and a few years later they moved to Coggon.

Bonnie stayed home with the children, and later in life she worked at the North Linn and Central City Schools. Bonnie loved to be around all her kids.

Bonnie knew her way around the kitchen, loving to cook and bake. She was writing a book of all her recipes. One of her most famous recipes is an old family favorite, "Grandma Beymer's chocolate cake". Bonnie also made a mean pot roast. Nobody could replicate it, of course, but she swore the secret was to start it from frozen.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband in August of 2021, Bob; daughter, Joyce; and seven siblings, Carl Jr., Raymond, Marilyn, Richard, Allen, Carole, and Sue.

Memorials and cards may be sent to 309 2nd Street South in Coggon, Iowa, 52218.
