• Bonnie - our sincere condolences to you and your family. Although I only met your dear folks once or twice, it is because of them that I learned to sign the alphabet which I passed on to my sisters, one of whom made sign language her life career.

• Dear Bonnie, Our Deepest Sympathy to you and family. Your Mother (Jean) was a wonderful lady and bright side with great smile, also gave hugs while socializing in the deaf community also Deaf & Blind groups. Remember, Jean & I were talking about gardens, Jean says give me some beetroots tops and love have soup! I stopped at her place (apartment) and dropped off and she said come sit down and have some of soup. We did and enjoy the moments of chatting and good laughs.

• I'll always appreciate and remember Jean. Even though I only saw her from time to time, her face would always light up. Jean would always give you her full attention and she had a great sense of humour. I admired her deep faith in God - put into practice with a warm loving presence to all she met. I'll miss you Jean, but I'm glad you can now have eternal peace and joy with the Maker. - Posted by: Kyle Schellenberg () on: Mar 18, 2015

• Dear Bonnie we are so sorry to hear about your mom. She was such a wonderful person. She has taught me a lot during the time when I moved in to the Deaf Centre to the time Brian started work at Superstore near her home where she got some help from Brian as a customer. We have so many laughs and memories together. The one day when I gave her a ride home she had brought me dinner and I have told her no you don't need to buy me dinner. But she did and I was thinking she wanted some company too. I know she has a lot of friends from far and wide. Now she is resting peacefully and had joined with your dad. May her rest in peace.

• Thom & I are so sorry for your loss, Bonnie. I've always admired your mom - a strong woman who cared so deeply about the world around her. She was one of those rare deaf people who didn't let that get in the way of her need to connect with people. She'd do her own assessment of how she felt it was best to communicate with someone & then proceeded with it. Somehow she'd always pick a method that appealed to the other person such that they'd be willing to continue to converse with her. An innate gift! I'm glad to know she was able to leave this earth on her own terms ~ so like Jean! I tip my hat to you! - Posted by: Janice Hawkins (friend of the family) on: Mar 17, 2015

• Bonnie, I remember meeting your mom and dad on a few occasions but I have never forgotten their warmth and love. You were truly blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people.

• Jean had welcomed me with open arms into her home for 4 weeks while I was on my practicum placement as a Deaf Interpreter student from Halifax, NS 12 years ago. She has the biggest and most gentle heart. I became attached to her right away. I loved her sharing her stories from her past. She introduced me to the Deaf Communitiy in Winnipeg. I'm so blessed and honoured to have known her. I am so glad I got to see Jean last July 2014 while I was in Winnipeg. Jean has a very special spot in my heart forever!!!! ❤️xo - Posted by: Chrissy Montgomery (friend from the east coast) on: Mar 17, 2015

• I didn't know Jean well, but what I do remember is as Bonnie's classmate I had the opportunity to meet Jean and Ross and to learn basic sign language.

• Bonnie, I am sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. I met her while working at the front desk at DCM about 15 years ago. She was so patient with me and my rusty ASL. I saw her a few times after I started working in a hearing centre and she would pass by my office on her way to her doctor. She will be missed.
