Please pray for our founder, Jamie and her family as they grieve the loss of her grandmother.  She began her new journey in heaven just after 10:45pm on Wednesday, February 27, 2019.  She was Navy veteran of 96 years old and leaves behind her husband of 70 YEARS whom she believed was her guardian angel, James L. Sands and whom is currently 94.  Bonnie will go ahead of those she loves and also leaves behind:  her daughter Sheila J. Wright and son-in-law James Timothy Wright; grandchildren Bethany Shea Reyer, Brian Harvey Isbell and Jamie Kathleen Jones; great-grands Kelsey, Nick, Lilly, Kaitlyn, Mitchell, and Matthew; great-great grands Ava and Scarlet.  Bonnie and James lived in Nashville, TN most of their lives with their son Jimmy who passed away years before her.  For the past 9 years Bonnie and James lived near their daughter Sheila in Scottsdale, AZ and enjoyed their family time together getting to see all the beautiful desert sites.  There will be a military grave side service at the National Cemetery on Cave Creek Road in Scottsdale, AZ.  Dates and details on this will follow.  The family has requested, in lieu of flowers, to please make your heart’s donations to Asha’s Refuge, a 501(c)3 nonprofit in Memphis, TN that welcomes newcomers and shares the love and hope of Jesus.  (A link has been provided below if you are considering a quick donation of love or you may choose instead to mail a check to:  Asha’s Refuge, 1035 Winchester Blvd., Suite A216, Collierville, TN  38017.)  Click the “heart or logo” button below or visit the link:  https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=NSBXC4RGGXGB4
