    I am sorry to be so late to offer condolences, but I was recently wondering what happened to my friend Bonnie Westlake, who moved to Exeter when we were children, and found this. My sympathy to her family, particularly John. It’s been a very long time, but I never forgot either of you. From reading the condolences, it seems that Bonnie remained the same person that I knew, and her smile in the photos is exactly as I remember it. I’m sorry we lost touch.

Cherish your precious memories and hold them close to your heart. May the love of your faith, family and friends give you peace and comfort. Hugs and prayers, George and Sue Wilson and family

    I just learned today of Bonnie’s passing and it saddens me so.I enjoyed working with Bonnie through he Medical Centre, she looked after the doctor billings. God, she was so full of life and lived her life to the fullest! She faced each battle with cancer and never stopped. Her family gave her the added strength to help her get through difficult days. And the grand baby helped too.
    I am thankful she played a part of my life.
    My condolences to her family during this difficult time.

    Noel, Tristen & Ben, John ,
    I’m so sorry to only learn today of Bonnie’s passing. She has left a mark on my lives with her kindness, generosity, sparkle and that infectious smile. It was great to have her move into the neighbourhood, ride on Bus 17 and add some excitement to our grade at Usborne. I appreciated her always catching my throws to first base wherever my aim from the mound ended up and she never complained. The years we played together for Hurondale, Kirkton and the Greys have many memories of sharing rides, and celebrating wins. After moving back into the area, it was always wonderful to catch up at Dr. Steele’s, and the Hensall Clinic. She was very proud of her family and your accomplishments Tristen. May your memories fill your hearts in the days ahead.
    Hugs to all, Patti Down & John McAllister

    My deepest condolences to the entire Westlake family. I have very fond memories of Bonnie growing up. She was always such a vibrant and strong girl and woman. I remember when her and John first came to Usborne school, Bonnie was in my class. As a young man you notice someone a beautiful and outgoing as Bonnie when she is the new girl. She was always so much fun and so friendly and outgoing. She was definitely a special and one of a kind lady. Praying for peace for her family and friends.

    Dear Tristen, Ben, Lincoln . . . Noel, John, Krista, Jasmine . . . & all of Bonnie’s Family & Friends . . .

    Saying goodbye is always heartbreaking especially when it is such a young lady – so beautiful both inside and out and who had the zest for life. It is so difficult to understand why these things happen to such good people. Bonnie, you were admired by so many of us for your special qualities – strength, courage, positivity, determination, strong will and so many more but also for your loving manner, kindness, loving smile, infectious laugh but most importantly the LOVE for your family, friends & neighbours.

    The bond between a Mother, Grand-Mother, Daughter, Sister, Aunt & Friend is profound and everlasting – Bonnie, you set the standards high as you influenced each & everyone of us in your own unique way.

    To Bonnie’s family – may the loving cherished memories you have of her live on – in your hearts forever- bring smiles to your faces – some comfort and help you face the difficult days that lay ahead. “Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; Love leaves a memory no one can steal.” You have so many family, friends, neighbours & community grieving along side you and supporting all of you with their thoughts & prayers.

    May God keep you in his loving arms as you grieve and celebrate Bonnie’s life.

    Bonnie is now resting peacefully in the arms of the angels & may her journey to the next life be as wonderful as she was on Earth. She will be your guiding angel in spirit – watching over all of you & having a blast being reunited with her Dad, Walter.

    Rest in Peace my dear”Friend” – we had some really fun times & we will forever miss you XO

    So sorry for your loss –our deepest sympathy – HUGS to all !

    Clare, Brenda Martene & Family

    We are so very sorry for your loss. Bonnie was a wonderful human being . She lives on now, through Tristen, to the next generation. Hopefully, you will see glimpses of her in Lincoln, as he grows… physically and in mannerisms for example … a reminder of her contributions to family, friends and her community. Sincere condolences to Noel, John and family as well.
