She went on to teach at Gladden, Hickory Ridge, Plum Valley, Plato, Bloodland, Ellsworth Schools and the last school was Licking Elementary School making a full circle. She was a gifted, talented and loving teacher. She was known to pick up students and take them to school and then deposit them back to their homes on her journey home.

Bonnie was well known for sending laminated newspaper clippings in the mail, along with words of encouragement in a greeting card to many residents in the area. Opening those cards brought many smiles and comfort to those receiving them. Bonnie supported many civic causes and blessed many people with her generosity.
Bonnie was counted on to do a great job no matter what that job might be. She was respected and loved and will be greatly missed by all who were touched by her life.
