Mother Bonnie lived by the spirit instruments of God, His word, trusting God, prayers, unity, praise, and worship. Facing life trails, storms and tribulations, her trust and faith in God’s word never wavier. She knew that God is faithful to His word and that it is true and will come to past, if God said it; she knew that it would definitely come to past. This Woman of God was faithful to her family, church, and community.

Her love for the elderly was quite noticeable, she made sure that they were taken care of and fed. Anything that was asked of her, she did without questioning why. She loved her church, members and her pastor. 

She participated in All Special Events with her financial support even if she could not attend. We will truly miss this Loving Soul from our membership.

She leaves to cherish her memory, three sons, three grandchildren, Akeem and Kiara Berry and Victoria Brice along with a host of relatives and friends.
