“Some people take in stray animals--Florine took in stray people. To us, she was Grandma Bonnell, even to those with no blood connection. I never once asked her for help and was turned away, and she helped me plenty. I always knew I could turn to her in tough times. She didn't know a stranger, and there was always room for one more. She was gifted with plants, animals, and kids. I love the thought that she is with her parents and siblings, & Rog, Gloria & Arnie, playing euchre. Love, Traci&family”
