Beloved Country Place Bus Driver Passed Away

BonnieMaeSchwaderThe Country Place Bus Driver, Bonnie Mae Schwader . . . affectionately known as Miss Bonnie to most of us . . . passed away last weekend.  Her funeral services were on Saturday and Bus 081 was even there!  I’ve made a donation to the Bonnie Schwader Fund at American State Bank from all the Country Place kids.  Now, I’m not asking for $$ to cover the costs, just thought it would be nice to know for the kids and families who still ride the bus.  

[Rebecca, you’re the best! We also got a nice note from Mary Watts, the new bus driver, with her contact info:

Mary Blair Watts, cell 903.312.0095 wattsm702@wmconnect.com

Miss Bonnie was greatly appreciated by our family because she kept an eye out for iPod’s, cell phones and books that our boy Lucas was prone to leaving on the bus. She’d always hold his stuff and give it to him when he got aboard again.]
