Bonnie was born in Innisfail, Alberta on April 1, 1956, to Stan and Ruth Hjelmeland.  She was a homemaker, and a devoted mother and grandmother.  Bonnie loved spending time with her children, grandchildren, extended family, and friends.  Many happy days were spent with everyone she loved, going out for drives, and working in her yard and garden.

A very special thank you to the doctors, nurses, and caregivers in the Acute and Long Term Care areas of the Rimbey Hospital and Care Centre.  Your kindness towards Bonnie will never be forgotten.
