Obituary
Bonnie was a dedicated and proud pharmacist who spent more than 40 years serving her community through Jewel-Osco Pharmacy. Known for her determination and strength, she completed numerous half marathons and twice crossed the finish line of the Chicago Marathon, all while living with only one lung. Bonnie found joy in playing Mah Jong and Canasta. She had a true gift for gardening and a green thumb that filled her home with beautiful plants. Above all else, Bonnie’s greatest pride and happiness came from her family and friends. She cherished every moment spent with them, and her love, devotion, and unwavering support will be remembered always.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Neuroendocrine Tumor Research Foundation (NETRF) at www.netrf.org or UT MD Anderson Hospital at www.mdanderson.org. Chapel service Thursday 2:30 PM at Shalom Memorial Funeral Home, 1700 W. Rand Road, Arlington Heights. Immediately following the chapel service, the interment will take place at Shalom Memorial Park.

I’m so sorry to hear about Bonnie’s passing. She was a true trooper. I will always remember her as brave and stoic when facing so many adversaries. A great role model. And she and Michele were the two cousins one could always count on to show up. My heart felt sympathies to Michele, Sheri, and Alyse. May her memories serve as great comfort to you all.

Bonnie was referred to me back in 2014 by Robert Joseph. We met and put together a plan to help her develop a strategy for investing her retirement and personal funds. Over the years we would talk about every 6 months & meet at least once/year. She was appreciative of how her accounts had grown & very easy to communicate with. Bonnie had a great deal of confidence in Bob Joseph & often relied on his suggestions. Bob influenced Bonnie to meet with our TEAM & the relationship continued on for over 12 years. Bonnie will be missed but before she died she wanted to make sure her daughters would benefit from her financial rewards. Despite her pains & health issues she really chose not to complain but to do the best she could.
