Bonnie, Family, Friends, Co workers, I was shocked when I heard about the news. Complete sadness for someone who gave so much to so many, family, clients, friends. You always had a special place in my heart, your dedication, your smile, always willing to work, picking up extra shifts with Home Care, never refusing any shifts, always willing to be there for so many people. Your generosity, your kindness, and your huge heart will be miss by all. There will be many tears because we all lost an amazing strong beautful person. My heart goes to the fanily left behind. Just know we are all praying for you to get thru this difficult time. The Home Care program has lost a loyal Health Care aide, the lost is felt by everyone that touch your heart. I could always reach you by phone no matter when, I will also miss our great times we spent together mostly in the office. You left us all too soon one day we will meet again. Bonnie, I personally will miss you and will carry on the good moments and memories we shared. May God be with you, and your family.

To My Wonderful sister-in-law, I was so happy to finally have a wonderful sister like you. I really wanted to get to know you better and, like Robert, we wanted to do so much with you and Heather and Glen. I'm so glad that you and Heather got to come to Chicago last year. I loved having you both and was looking forward to so many more adventures and travels. We wanted to take you to Disney World and a cruise to the carribean and much more. I feel a great loss and emptiness, now. But, I know that you are in the presence of the Lord and nothing can top that! I always knew that you were one of his quiet angels on Earth. Will greatly miss you. Love, Your sister-in-law, Nancy - Posted by: Nancy Downey (sister-in-law) on: Sep 16, 2012

My dearest beloved sister, I am so sorry to lose you so early in life. I will miss talking with you every week. I had so many plans for you since we got back in contact. Nothing can replace the emptiness that I feel. I know that you are in heaven with mom, dad, Ricky and the rest of the family. I am so sorry that I cannot be there for the memorial. You will always be forever in my heart. Love, your brother, Robert - Posted by: Robert Downey (Brother) on: Sep 16, 2012

My sincere sympathy to you Heather and Glen. Your mom and I had good times together when we were younger, and in moving away from Winnipeg, I've lost touch. In her picture she looks very much like your grandmother. Take care and be close to one another. Wendy - Posted by: Wendy Zink (Cousin) on: Sep 16, 2012
