I remember her well, a very nice, dignified, professional lady, from my high school days 45 years ago. Also her brother, whose first name escapes me, was the attending physician in ER when I was admitted with a stomach injury, a hockey game in Perth Ont. My condolences to the family.

I worked with Bonnie on a couple of committees many years ago in the days of Family Focus in Arnprior Community. She was always warm, generous and kind! Even all these years later, when I would see her, she always remembered me - with the huge number of people she knew in town, I always felt honoured that she remembered who I was, and my connection to Dr Marshall and Family Focus! My sincere condolences on your great loss of this lovely lady.

Dear Graham, Richard, Kayla, & Kristen,
I have so many great memories of Bonnie from when I grew up across the street that it is impossible to choose one to share. But what stands out the most is that, whenever you bumped into her, in the neighbourhood or elsewhere, she always offered a big, genuine smile. In her home life and in her role at the school you could tell she really cared about people. She was a great neighbour to have. Our most sincere condolences to all. Mike & Judy

Mrs Bews was my neighbour and someone who always had a smile for me, as a child or an adult. She was very kind and generous with her professional advice and she was a great listener. The memory I will keep with me is from my wedding day as we were leaving the house for the ceremony she ran to the car with her camera in hand to snap her own photos of me in my dress. Her excitement for me on that special day elevated the experience and I’ll never forget how she made me feel. My condolences to Mr Bews, Richard, Kayla and Kristen and their families.

Mrs. Bews was a remarkable woman and had a gift to give advice when needed without being overbearing at all. She was gentle and comforting and you always left her office feeling like you had a chat with a friend. Best of all, she helped me find my career path for which I will always be grateful. My sincere condolences to her entire family, may she rest in peace.

Bonnie was a light in the world. She was kindness and grace with a bubbling laughter that simply loved life and brought joy to those around her. Whenever I spent any time with Bonnie, she left me wanting more. And now she leaves us all wanting much, much more. My thoughts are with her family.... those she loved so fiercely, and proudly... and while I know sweet memories will bring some comfort, this amazing woman will be forever missed. My deepest condolences.

Bonnie was a senior guidance teacher when I signed on as a teacher at Arnprior Districst High School, Her kindness, sincere interest in students who needed extra attention, and grace in all her interactions were an inspiration to me. I shall never forget her speech to the school the year she retired, a speech to inspire the young people to become their best selves.

So sad to hear this news. Have known Bonnie for a number of years and all of my children benefited from her guidance in high school. Although I have moved from Arnprior, several months ago I met up with Bonnie and Kayla at the Civic Hospital. We only had time for a quick visit since I was on my way to an appointment and they were on their way to visit Graeme. In typical fashion, Bonnie was still interested and asked about each of the children. She was still interested in where they were and what they were doing. More evidence of her dedication and sincere love of her career as guidance counsellor. She truly has touched the lives of so many. Remembering her with much affection and thinking of Graeme and the family at this difficult time.

My Mother adored her 'younger' cousin as we all did. We always knew that Graeme and Bonnie's door was open in Arnprior and we so appreciated catching up with everyone's lives when they visited our parents in Port Perry/Cobourg.
So grateful we had our rendezvous this summer where again I left feeling embraced by Bonnie's gentle and comforting spirit.
Sending lots of love and hugs to Graeme, their children and extended family.

We were devastated to hear of the passing of Bonnie. She was a wonderful, kind and caring person and always took interest in you and your family. She will be sadly missed by her neighbours and friend's human or pet. You would walk by Graeme and Bonnie’s home and they always welcomed you. If Graeme was absent Bonnie would take time and go into the garage and get Snoop a treat. We always enjoyed her chats whenever we saw her either out front of their home or when she stopped by on her walk.
Thinking of your family and knowing that you are in our thoughts and prayers. It was an honour to know Bonnie. She was a wonderful woman, wife, mother, grandmother and friend.
Lori and John. Thanks
