Bonnie Jean Haefner had so much love in her heart to give. It is with great sadness that she passed away on February 17, 2025 at age 74. She was predeceased by her parents, Dominic and Mary Ferrauilo; brothers Michael and James Ferrauilo. She is survived by her loving daughters, Tifany (Ryan) Morgan, Marleah (Andrew) Duncan, Tara (Joe) Jehlen; grandchildren, Thomas, Skylar, Colin, Avery, and Teagan who were her pride and joy; siblings, Debra (Joseph) Haefner, Donald (Joyce) Ferrauilo, Teresa (David) Lang, nieces, nephews, and many dear friends.

Bonnie will be most remembered for her love of family. She was a dedicated mother, loving sister, adoring aunt, and an amazing grandmother. She taught her daughters what strength looked like and the importance of family. Her sisters were her best friends and they depended on one another and supported each other all of their lives. Her brother, Donald, would move mountains to make her happy. Her grandchildren were the light of her life. She would go to every single event they had whenever she could. She would be the loudest fan in the place. Bonnie was incredibly proud of them and didn’t want to miss a thing, even on her difficult dialysis days. She had a passion for gardening, cooking, reading, shopping, spending time with her sisters, and traveling. After being a stay-at- home mom for many years she became a tour escort for AAA. Bonnie traveled the world. Her joyful enthusiasm for making each trip a memorable experience for everyone was a true gift. Bonnie was an advocate for Donate Life America, and also participated and won medals in the Transplant Olympic Games. Bonnie was a devout Catholic and despite her myriad of health issues her faith never wavered and only grew stronger.
