undefined I wish to send this to Annie, whom I knew as a little girl. I knew of Bonniechr(39)s death last year but never thought of looking for ths site. I was one of many who knew Bawn way back then, part of a sort of extended family of all of us. I mostly knew Bawnie when she was married to your dad and we were friends. This makes me very sad really. I guess I am just glad that she is at peace. I last remember you Annie when Bawnie and Hennessay came to visit me and we were all sitting in my kitchen and you were crawling under the kitchen table :-) The reason I did this search was I happened upon a Youtube of the Pepper Tree. Yes, just sad. Itchr(39)s just a year ago. We all lost touch and I ended up with my daughter Ruth, in Goose Bay. I donchr(39)t have a lot of great memories of those days, they werenchr(39)t all very cool, as a couple of the writers on this site said. But Bawnie was definitely part of my life then as I was hers. I do have a snap of her taken at Bill Cooperchr(39)s one New Yearchr(39)s if you want a copy, just let me know Ichr(39)d be happy to send it along. Hope youchr(39)re well and doing fine. I still can hear Bawnie singing Stormy Monday Michael

I wish to offer my sincere condolences to the entire family of Bonnie. It is my loss that I never met this talented lady, but Ichr(39)ve heard about her through her sister Judy, and my daughter-in-law Lara. I knew she was gravely ill, but the sadness I feel is still overwhelming. Only at a track and field event this morning for my grandson did I receive the dismal news from my daughter.
Again, please accept my sincere condolences.

To the Oulton Family,
My sincere condolences to the family on your recent loss. I can still see her sauntering down the halls of WRHS or singing with the Ardorfolk. Such a notable and unique voice. I recently saw an old photo of Bonnie with a small group of other boys and girls preparing for the annual music festival. Cherish your memories. May those memories and the loving caring thoughts and prayers of family and friends bring you comfort at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Debbie DeWolfe Scott and Phillip Scott

Just reading McGrathchr(39)s comment brought me to tears. I find that the years rolled away and I keep thinking of Bawnie back in the 60s when we first met, and I agree with McGrath, Bawnie was the coolest, she was the first really "cool" person that I had met. She blew us away with her talent, of course, but with her ease. I didnchr(39)t know then that I was in fact older than Bawn, she seemd so much more experienced and worldly. She seemed to make no demands and our whole group fell immediately into her thrall and we were devoted fans of hers forever. Nothing in all our years has ever caused me to waver in my love and admiration for Bawnie. Our children were born months apart, two of the very few cousins on their fatherschr(39) side, and our lives have criss-crossed with family and work(WGB)since those early halcyon days. We were trying to get the Wonderful Grand Band CD released so Bawn could enjoy the hoopla, but she was content to know it was coming and not compelled to wait around for it. Content. Despite whatever she had to cope with I think Bawnie was content, especially these last months under the care of her wonderful sisters and Jimmy, to whom we are also devoted, and of Annie. Bawnie was so visibly proud of Annie and I am convinced her life was prolonged these last months because of the excitement of looking forward to Anniechr(39)s visits. Lots of love to Bawnie, and Annie and all her family, from one of her biggest fans forever and ever. White

Sorry to hear of Bonnie`s passing. I enjoyed speaking with her when I called her about the monthly meetings. I regret not hearing her sing; I`m sure her voice is even sweeter now.

"Bawn and I were together for twenty-three years and, like any married couple, we had our share of good times and bad times, but we also shared a great deal of love. We lived and worked together for a long time, but our greatest production, as it were, was our beloved daughter Annie. Bawn was a unique and remarkable woman, and I will always honour her memory. My condolences are extended, of course, to her family and friends in Nova Scotia but I can assure them all that Bawn will be remembered with much affection in Newfoundland as well. I didnchr(39)t get the chance to speak to her before her passing -- I thought therechr(39)d be more time -- but if I could speak to her Ichr(39)d say: God bless and God speed, Bawn. Bryan Hennessey, former husband"

Dear Family Bonnie Oulton,
Please accept my condolences on your loss.
I found comfort in the hope for our dear loved ones that is expressed in the Bible at Psalm 37:29 which says: "The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it."
We can be assured that when wickedness is wiped out from the earth and it is restored to a paradise like the Garden of Eden as God originally purposed, our loved ones will return to life on earth. John 5: 28,29 tells us that "...The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out ..."
In the Lordchr(39)s Prayer that most of us pray we ask for Godchr(39)s Kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Then there will be no more sorrow or pain as we are promised at Revelation 21:3,4. It reads in part: "Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, ... And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.ââ?¬ÃÂ
I hope these words bring a measure of comfort in your time of loss.
Sincerely,
Sandra Sullivan

It was with great sadness that I read about Bonnie. Our families were so close in the early years, such fond memories. My favourite memory is when Bonnie came on a camping trip with my mom & dad, Bill,our Bonnie and me to Ontario to see our oldest brother David.
I will always remember when she came to see us after we lost our mom, Vera, and how we just chr(39)picked upchr(39) where we left off...her uniqueness was such a gift!
Special love to all the Oulton family, please know you are in my thoughts.

I was so sad and shocked to learn of Bonniechr(39)s death. I live in PEI, so my sister, Carol, sent me an attachment - a copy of the obituary. Bonnie and I had great times in Junior and Senior High School, many great sleepovers also, but I especially remember the duets we sang at the Music Festivals. She had such a unique voice! We won many times! :)
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I visited with Bonnie last summer, bringing my two young great-nieces that Ichr(39)m raising, Melissa, 8 and Becky, 15. "Who is she, auntie?" they asked. "An old friend," I said, "a wonderful poet, an amazing blues singer. I havenchr(39)t seen her for a very long time." Ichr(39)d lived in British Columbia for 30 years. Bawn told me she was a bit nervous having a visitor. What would I think, after all this time? Who would we still be to each other? Although Bawn seemed somewhat fragile and cautious at that time, we had a wonderful visit. She had a dish of rough sand sitting in the window that the kids were intrigued with. She told them that she found it relaxing to make patterns in it with her finger. They both tried it and agreed with her. Our mutual friend Konrad took the girls on to the seaside so that Bawn and I could talk. We talked as old friends do. We didnchr(39)t bother for the most part with all the ups and downs wechr(39)d each been through, the mistakes wechr(39)d made, the might-have-beens, it didnchr(39)t matter. We agreed it was best to just be where we were, two old friends sharing a cup of tea and some pleasant reminiscences. Although we hadnchr(39)t always stayed in close touch over the years, I loved my friend through those ups and downs we didnchr(39)t talk about. Ichr(39)d phone her once a year or so and say , "Howchr(39)s it goinchr(39)?" and shechr(39)d say either, "Oh, not too bad, girl." or "Oh McGrath, I donchr(39)t know." I was always the one who phoned, and she always seemed surprised that I did, but when I said I was coming to Nova Scotia and would like to see her, she phoned to make sure I really was coming, and after that visit we called back and forth more regularly until she was in the hospital. Before we came home from our trip to Nova Scotia I collected a bottle of sand from Crescent Beach and weeks later I found Melissa had poured it into a dish and set it in her window. "It really DOES work." she said. And now, as I write this I weep for my friend. I know she had some hard times. Some came unwanted into her life, and some she went out and dragged home. But when I met Bawn in the 60chr(39)s, she was the coolest person in the world, sauntering into the room with her fur jacket slung over her shoulder, singing Stormy Monday in a voice that broke your heart. She had a curious mind, a whimsical sense of humour that always tickled me, and a deep compassion. You donchr(39)t always have to be in frequent touch with someone to be friends, sometimes just knowing theychr(39)re somewhere out there is enough. I will miss her very much.
