She had worked many jobs over the years including General Motors and Piggly Wiggly's. Most of all she was an excellent mother. Her loving family remembers her wonderful cooking, her warm sense of humor, and love for laughter. Bonnie enjoyed crafts especially sewing and ceramics. Working in her garden was another love, her knowledge of flowers and plants was remarkable. She is survived by children: Dean and Jody Evans of Gramby, CT, Onnie Lynn Evans and Larry Fultz of Monroe, Matthew Wayne Evans of Daytona Beach, FL, and Bill and Polly Goodwin of Aliceville; grandchildren: Amy Evans, Sam Evans, Stacie and David Williams, Brandon Fultz and Angela, and Will Goodwin; a great granddaughter: Madison; and many close friends and family in Aliceville and Monroe. She was preceded in death by her beloved parents: Vernon and Vivian and Edward and Copelin; three siblings: Jerry and Fred Owens, and Dorothy Hardin. For those desiring memorial contributions are suggested to Heartland Hospice and Home Care or to the American Lung Association. The family has found comfort in scripture being that their mother was a devoted Christian who actively read the Bible. Romans 8:28: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.
