Bonnie Frances Whalen (Larson)

It is with a heavy heart we say goodbye to mom. She was a military wife, mother of seven rambunctious children; faced obstacles & challenges with strength and determination! We could only hope one day to be half the person she was. We take solace in knowing she is dancing in heaven with dad. Goodbye mom, love and miss you.
