    Bonnie Sarge was a very special lady. She brought every one she knew closer to God. We co-taught CCD at St Therese for many years and I know she inspired many a child. I am thankful that I could call her my friend.

    The earth revolves around the sun and tilts on its axis and this world is a better place because of you Mrs Sarge. Bonnie taught me this lesson in the 4th grade I can still see her dancing around the classroom spinning the globe. As I grew into an adult I would see her from time to time and she always took a genuine amount of time to talk with me and ask how I was doing. She knew if I had hard times going on and genuinely cared, would give me advice and pray with me. I will really miss seeing you around Mrs Sarge. Sending my condolences to all of her family and friends she really was a very, very special lady. I'm not sure they make them like her anymore.

    Bonnie was a wonderful lady and I'm am blessed to have spent time with her. She would visit me at the bank and I would help her with her needs. She even brought me flowers for helping her. We would talk and I so enjoyed her hug when she left and her promise to pray for me. She was a special lady. May shortest in peace Debbie Buechel Fischer
