Sad News About Bonny Eby

[Towncrier]

Oh no. Words cannot express my sadness at her passing. I missed seeing them at MouseFest this year and had hoped to get together this summer. Prayers for Andrew and MJ.

So sorry! The family is in my prayers!

sometime last night.

I just spoke with Andrew... he told me a story of how much Bonny believed in Organ Donation and so he signed all the papers yesterday so that she may help others live.

He's busy trying to get MJ in a school since Bonny had been home schooling her.

He's taken the week off from work to try and get everything taken care of that needs to be.

No word on any kind of service.

Andrew is very appreciative of all the love and support and prayers everyone has been sending.

Very very sad.

So sorry to hear this. I kind of expected it, but was hoping it would not come to pass.

Andrew & MJ will remain in my prayers and hopefully Bonny's passing and unselfish sacrifice will give somebody else a second chance.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Andrew and MJ during this hard time.

I've posted this on WDWMagic too, but I am so sad to hear of Bonny's passing. She was a great lady and a great mommy to MJ.

Do you suppose there's anything we can do for MJ and Andrew? I've already asked on WDWMagic if someone could PM me their address so that I can send a card to MJ and Andrew (I can't seem to find their address in any of my books). But can anyone think of anything else we could do, especially for poor little MJ. Bonny devoted all of her time to taking care of MJ and I can't imagine what she must be going through now without Bonny there for her.

OH my goodness! This is such sad news!

Years ago my DD and I met Bonnie, MJ and Andrew on the Safari ride in AK. We were in line together and they were so sweet and helpful to us! In fact she is one of the first people who told me about DisBoards!

They had just formally adopted MJ and Bonnie was holding her on her lap in a wheel chair. Bonnie was glowing from motherhood!

It was one of those moments and people that just stick in your mind!

Bonnie's sweet smile and nature will forever be etched in my heart!

Andrew, I am so very sorry for your and MJ's loss!

Spoke to Andrew this morning. He is hanging in there, taking one day at a time. He is still working on getting MJ into a day school and hope that will get settled out in the next week or so.

He shared some great news with me today.

A couple folks asked me for Andrew's address but I deleted your emails
I now have his ok to share the address so if you still want it, please email me at allearsnet at yahoo dot com

I"m printing off the threads to mail to Andrew. He is very appreciative of everyone's thoughts and prayers and well wishes.
