Memories and Condolences
for Mary Bonner

Not sure what to say?





Mary was my roommate at Courtyard on Harlem Avenue in Berwyn. She was always a dear, sweet person. I loved sharing a room with her. Now she has gone home to Father and she will be greatly missed. I send my love and prayers to Pauline and all Mary's family members.

Love,
