Her life began November 30, 1979 in Cadillac, Michigan, born to the late Kathleen Woodward.
Bonnie was kind, caring, and always there to help, no matter what. She was someone who could make you laugh and bring a smile to your face.

Bonnie will be greatly missed by family and friends. She is survived by two daughters, Justice (Adam Prusa) Ricketts of New Troy and Hailey Ricketts of Bridgman; one grandson, Miloh Jay; four sisters, Kathy (Jay) Sunday of Robinson, Texas, April (Karl) Hutchinson, Bethany Taylor, and Donna (Chuck) Crumley, all of Benton Harbor; two brothers, Jason Woodward and Adam Guess of Benton Harbor; and a host of nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her mother, Kathleen; sister, Emi Hutchinson-Wert; and a special aunt, Ramona McGraw.
