A successful life should not be measured by academic degrees, position or money. It should be measured by love for God, love for family and kindness and compassion toward all. Bonnie Jean Alexander was a success in her life here on earth.

Bonnie Jean Alexander left this earthly life on December 10, 2019.

Bonnie later moved to Enid where she worked for several years as a Unit Supervisor for Norce. As her health declined, she moved to Pond Creek to be closer to her grandchildren.
-
Bonnie’s biggest priority in her life was her children and grandchildren. She was the happiest when she was in their company. She loved supporting them in everything they did and she reveled in their accomplishments. She loved being at the many football, basketball, baseball games, vocal programs and school plays. She loved seeing them succeed and was always there with a loving smile and warm hug no matter what the outcome.
-
To her family, Bonnie was always so caring and compassionate. If a family member shared a problem with her she was always concerned and sympathetic. She would worry over someone’s else’s problem before even considering her own circumstances. She would contact the person checking back to get an update to see if things were going better. If they weren’t, she would keep in contact. She loved her family, her brothers, her sisters, her nieces and nephews with every ounce of her being.
-
To her friends, Bonnie loved keeping in touch. Even during the times when she was unable to travel much she loved hearing from them about their families and reminiscing about old times. She was always there to lend and ear. Bonnie was a good friend to everyone she met. In high school she had been voted Most Friendly of her senior class. She always had a smile and a greeting for everyone.
