You probably don’t know me but I graduated with your mother at Manheim Central. We were best friends. I also worked at the drug store that used to belong to her father. My brother sent the obituary to me here in Wisconsin. I was very sad to hear about this. I lost my oldest sister is August of this year so I know what you are all going to. Please accept my love and prayers. I know she will be missed dearly.
Jodi and Tracy,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. Mom Mundorf was a wonderful woman who was like a second mother to me. I’m so saddened by this loss. Her spirit and influence lives on.
Love,
Ruth

We have heard of Bonnie’s death with sadness. She was a fine lady, a pleasant personality, kind of fun-loving by nature, I thought. I know how much she’ll be missed.
Please accept our most sincere condolences.

The world has lost a friend with the passing of "The Bonn". I always enjoyed talking with her because she always made me laugh. I have many good memories of Bonnie, and Jodi’s stories about her. Remembering those smile-causing moments will ease the loss and last a lifetime. Bonnie’s family is to be commended for their caregiving and dedication to her. You enriched her life as she enriched yours. My thoughts are with you and my deepest sympathy.
