Bonnie married Adam G. Kirsch on December 29, 1954. They were married 65 years and are dancing together once again on their wedding date.

Her treasured friends Rick and Jeanne Tameler, Rosie McBurney, Linda Jefferies, Dellie Finkbeiner, Adam's cat Fireball and her dog Bubba.
Bonnie valued her family and friends, always putting them first. She will always be remembered for her March Madness craze, (go Gonzaga), scrapbooking, flowers, gardening (especially proud of the Asparagus patch from 1957) and devotion to Young and the Restless. We love and miss you, Roanie!
A memorial mass for Bonnie will be celebrated on Friday, January 10, 2019 at Sacred Heart Parish in Ronan at 11 am. A time to share stories and memories will follow with a luncheon after the service. In lieu of flowers she has requested memorials for Bread Basket, Garden of the Rockies Museum, Ninepipes Museum and Lake County Cancer Society.
