Bonny Lou Bruns was born on December 31, 1949, in Jamestown, ND to Ralph and Hazel (Watson) Hartley.
Bonny grew up in Jud, ND until the age of 13 when her family moved to a farm outside Garden City, SD. Bonny received her diploma from Clark, SD in 1967.
After graduating from school, Bonny was married and raised her 3 boys, Roy Gene Palmer, Jr., Ray Palmer, and Richard Alan Palmer. She loved her boys dearly.
In 1990, Bonny met the love of her life, Gordon Ray Bruns. They were united in marriage on July 28, 1990, at their farm outside of George, IA. The couple moved from George, IA to a farm outside of Little Rock, IA. If you drove by in the summer, you could see Bonny's prized flowers that she planted around the home.
Bonny was a very eclectic lady with interests ranging from gardening, bowling, horseshoes, crocheting Native American dancing dolls and collecting bells. She owned her own karaoke business called "The Wandering Unicorn" and you could find her singing with the weekend locals at the bar while enjoying a Diet Coke.
She was preceded in death by her parents; brother Raymond Hartley; granddaughter Elizabeth Palmer; grandson Carter Palmer; nephew Ricky Rowe; niece Carmela Kay Toth.
