  1. Dear Mom,
    I’m very sad you had to leave us. I will remember and miss you every day, in all things I do. I will honor you in every lesson I pass on to my daughter. I will never forget your smile and your laugh when you were being playful. Or the subtle mad face you gave me when I was messing up. Your voice will play on forever in my head and my heart.
    Although the hardest thing I ever had to do is watch you leave. I take much comfort in knowing where you went, and that your not gone. You finally left this cold world behind and went to the warmth of the light.
    It was very hard on me and all of us to watch you endure pain. From the ailments that bound you to a hospital bed. And the pain and sadness you suffered from loosing two children. As a father of one, I know I would never be able to match your strength. As a son to you, I will always admire it.
    You and Dad were a good team. You’ve both given us all so much together. Even though it sometimes was like living with the parents from Everyone Loves Raymond. We all knew there was only love. And either one of you would do anything and everything for each other.
    The holidays we celebrated, the vacations we went on, and the summer home you guys created. They will all provide me with wonderful memories for the rest of my life. Thank You.
    Saying goodbye is just not something I’m willing to do. But I won’t be selfish. You were always there for me. Go home Ma. It’s time Scott and Darren have their mother too. I’m gonna say see you later. I’ll always love you.

  3. So sorry Tom and Family, We just heard from Ray. Our deepest sympathies are with you. Bonnie will remain in our prayers.

    My Deep Heartfelt Condolences Tom,Jennifer, Ryan, Matthew,Tommy. Thoughts & Prayers to the Entire Crowley & Liebowitz Family.

  5. Bonnie… I don’t know where to begin. I am so sorry you have had to go through all the pain and suffering in your life that you have had to endure! From losing Scott and Darren, to all the drama and hardship we all must have caused at one time or another over the years! But you never stopped loving any of us!!! I’m so sorry you contracted this disease at a simple family & friend gathering, that should have been a happy time, and instead has just brought tragedy and suffering!

    I’ll never forget you Bonnie! The long talks we used to have. The wise advice you always gave! The funny and embarrassing stories you used to remind me of! I’ll never forget the purple Fruit Loops story for as long as I live!!! You were a voice of sanity and wisdom, when often there wasn’t any going around!

    You may have been a step-mom by marrying Dad. But you have always been a Mother to me in every sense of the word, since I was 3 years old up till the day you were gone!!! You were as much a part of me as a person could be. I love you very much, I’m devastated to know you’re gone, and a part of me will be empty and feel the pain of your loss!

    As we remember you, and say goodbye Bonnie, just know we will all have a special place in our hearts reserved for you! In the meantime, we are happy knowing you are reunited with Scott and Darren, Grandma & Grandpa, Bubby and Pop Pop, and everyone else who’s no longer with us! Please look in on us from time to time, with a memory sometime or a silent word of wisdom when we need one, until we will all get to see you again one day!!! We love you… Mom!!!!

  6. My condolence to Bonnie’s family and friends. I met Bonnie thru Vicky and she was so full of life and a beautiful lady inside and out. Keep the memories in your heart ❤️😢

  7. Dear Ma,
    Can you believe that I am having a hard time putting words together??? Being speechless is not something I experience very often, but I find myself wanting to say so much that the words are all jumbled and won’t come out. They say that people come in to our lives for a season, a reason, or a lifetime. I am so blessed that you came in to mine for a lifetime. You have inspired me, taught me, forgiven me, and loved me as your own. I have so many memories of laughter and tears over coffee in your kitchen or in the trailer. We are forever bonded over the love of your son, I am sure that Darren and Scott were thrilled to see you in heaven, but please remember to always watch over us here. I love you
