Bonnie Jeanne Butler

Bonnie J Butler, 77, died on Thursday, June 30, at her home in Lillian, AL. Although she had been in ill-health the past two years, her death was sudden and unexpected. Bonnie was born on June 21, 1939 to Wayne G and Geraldine L Trylch of Saginaw, MI. She will eventually be interred at Barrancas National Cemetery near her parents.

Bonnie was a people person which was apparent to everyone, including those at her job as manager of Lynn's Hallmark in University Mall. Bonnie was warm and friendly which was evident to all who knew her.
