Miriam Ottilia  Bonnell (Lorentz)
Bonnell, Miriam Ottilia (nee Lorentz)
On Saturday, June 10, 2017, our beloved mother, Miriam, slipped quietly away into her eternal rest with God at the age of 95. She will be reunited with our father, Herbert William (1994), and together they will waltz again.
Cherished mother of Howard, Mary (Don) Crowther, Richard (Patricia), Raymond (Lucy), Brian (Louise), Donna, David (Ann) and Norman (Sherry).
Much loved grandmother of 19 and great-grandmother of 17.
Dear sister of Margaret, Audrey and Gerrard (Camilla).
Miriam also leaves behind many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Predeceased by her parents, James and Carolina Lorentz, and sisters, Sister Audrey and Dorothy.
Lovingly remembered by Sharon Bonnell, Brian Brown and Nancy Hunter.

Thank you to the Sunnyside Community Alzheimer Program for giving her countless happy hours, to her PSW's, especially Barbara and Ann Marie, for taking such good and loving care of her, and to the 6th floor staff at St. Mary's Hospital for treating our mom, and us, with dignity and respect and keeping her comfortable in her final days.
