Green Valley, AZ Monday, December 13, 2021 Bonnie and I first met in 1953. We have been close friends ever since then. We shared many great,fun times, more than I can count. Also, it was through Bonnie that I met Ken, her brother and we got married in June of 1958. Bonnie was a giving, caring woman whom I will miss very much. It will be so strange when I get back to Nebraska and I won't be able to see her.Angie Oberg
, Monday, December 13, 2021 Bonnie was a friendly, kind-hearted soul who made sure to say hello and ask how I was each time I saw her. I will always remember her from my time as a student as she made the halls of LV brighter and happier. May you have peace in the midst of the missing.Jenna walraven
