For over 30 years, Bonnie worked for the Vineland Developmental Center as a recreational therapist and retired.  Bonnie was an avid animal lover, and a few of her favorite pastimes were going to the casinos, making flower arrangements and doing arts and crafts.  She was a kind and generous person who will be dearly missed by many.

Bonnie is survived by her sister Loretta Kears of Millville; two nephews, Paul Kears Jr., and Mark Kears and his wife Nancy; three nieces, Diana Reeves Walker, Susan Armington and her husband Richard, and Joni Woodruff; many great nieces and nephews; and her loving cat Cali.  She was predeceased by two brothers, William Reeves and Wilbert F.
