Bonnie Le Molle

Ms. Bonnie Le Molle, of Dalton, Georgia, and formerly of Grand Island, Nebraska, departed this life peacefully Thursday morning, September 17, 2026, at The Gardens Senior Living in Dalton, Georgia.

Bonnie was a 1947 graduate of Grand Island High School in Grand Island, Nebraska. She was also a member of Rock Bridge Community Church.

Those who knew Bonnie will remember her as a truly sweet and caring lady who had a gentle spirit and a wonderful sense of humor. She had a way of bringing smiles and laughter to those around her, and her humor was one of the many things that made her so special. She never lost her ability to find something to smile about, and her warm personality made people feel comfortable and loved in her presence.

Above all else, Bonnie loved her family. Her daughters, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and all those she held dear were a tremendous source of joy and pride throughout her life. She cherished the time she was able to spend with her family and leaves behind a lifetime of memories filled with love, laughter, kindness, and the sweet spirit that was uniquely hers. Her family will forever remember her for the love she gave so freely, her gentle heart, and the laughter she brought into their lives.

Bonnie is survived by her daughters, Chris and Dr. Joel Williams of Rocky Face, Georgia; Kathryn K. and Gale Mares of Schuyler, Nebraska; Patricia M. Meyer of York, Nebraska; Margaret Ann and Ron Steuben of Gothenburg, Nebraska; and Cynthia Le Gregory of Chicago, Illinois; step-children, Pamela and Don Hervert of Ravenna, NE, Sharolyn Molle of Kansas City, MO; fourteen grandchildren; sixteen great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
