To the Entire Family – I feel so lucky I got to know Bonnie and your family. Bonnie and Corby always treated my brother and me like we were their own. I have so many wonderful memories of having meals at their home, holiday times together, and how much they both supported our family when our mom died back in 2001. Best neighbors ever!! The relationship Bonnie and Corby had was so special; a once in a lifetime love. Your Mom’s kindness and love was felt by our family and I know she knew we loved her right back! I am so happy I was part of Bonnie’s circle. She will always have a special place in my heart.

Corb, Corby and Jennifer, I am so saddened to hear of Bonnie’s passing. I have nothing but good memories of my friendship with her. We shared a ton of laughs, coffee and good times. I am happy she is not in pain anymore. I’m sure she has earned her wings all ready. She will be watching her family from above. You were her world. Keeping you all in prayer.

I just learned of Mrs. Fulton’s passing today actually. I remember her from my days in high school at William Penn, when I was friends with her son Corby Jr, and hanging out at their house in Jefferson Farms. My mother, Joyce Burris Fuller, also grew up with Corby Sr. in New Castle, so our families knew each other going many years back. I’m so sorry to hear of your loss, and offer my sincere condolences to Corby Jr, Jennifer, their dad Corby Sr, and family.
