Bonnie Pauline (Brown) Robinson was born on June 12, 1939 in Ellston, Iowa and left this earth on her birthday of June 12, 2016.
Bonnie was born to Lawrence (Bud) and Lois (Creveling) Brown and spent part of her childhood in Ellston, IA. They moved to Wood in 1949, where Bonnie graduated high school in 1957 and enjoyed attending the all school reunions throughout the years.
She married Kencel Robinson on October 24, 1959and to this union three children were born: Sheba, Shane and Shawn. Her family remembers her as hard working, a good cook, always at our events, loved the outdoors and entertain many of our friends and family.
In 1984, Bonnie moved to Winner and watched over her parents and worked as a bookkeeper for several years. She was always on the go, shopping – anywhere, anything, rummages the more the better, dressing up, playing ten point pitch and drinking coffee with her many friends. She believed in hard work and enjoyed "ANY" challenge. Many will remember her as a strong woman, with a quick wit, sparkling eyes and kind smile.
Bonnie had many hobbies and collecting was one. She enjoyed showing off her treasures, no matter how big or small, she enjoyed the simple things in life. She enjoyed a good laugh and was known for jokes and funny cards.
Her favorite pastime was spending time with her five grandchildren; they hold many fond memories of a grandmother who loved them dearly. She watched over them, went to their events, enjoyed roughhousing and teasing and left us a few famous "Grandma Bonnie quotes". She loved all children and could be found on the floor or outside playing with them.
Bonnie is survived by Sheba and Alan Schlaikjer; granddaughters, Aundrea and Brittney Schlaikjer. Shawn and Gregg Ulmer, grandson Derrick and Jenny, great grandchildren Jocelyn and Dylan Ulmer; Grandson Myles Ulmer and finance Keely; Grandson Tucker Ulmer and friend Kory. Her sister Mary Anna and husband Eddie Blankenship. Nephew and Nieces: Lee, (daughter Paige), Michelle and Bonnie Blankenship; Nancy and Galen Lewis, daughters Sophia and Adrianne. Along with extended family on the Brown, Creveling and Robinson side.
She is preceded in death by her parents Bud and Lois; her brother Harley (Sharon) and Lee; and her son Shane.
