WILMINGTON — Bonnie Johnson Mitchell, 62, died Thursday, March 1, 2018, at the Lower Cape Fear Hospice Care Center.
She was born Sept. 15, 1955, in Burlington, N.C., to Eunice Pauline Johnson and George W. Johnson.
Bonnie Mitchell was a loving mother and wife who had many passions, including, but not limited to, being a flight attendant and volunteer with the local domestic violence shelter. Bonnie also loved pets and would have adopted any stray given enough room to house them.
Bonnie’s most recent joy was being “BeBe” to her grandson born in 2015. Bonnie’s kindness and willingness to help others was contagious. Her smile and sweet Southern tone will be
remembered by everyone she ever met.
Bonnie is survived by her husband, R. Edward Mitchell; daughter and son-in-law, Paige Mitchell Garner and Greg Garner; stepson and daughter-in-law, Mark and Kim Mitchell; grandchildren, Barrett Mitchell Garner and Morgan and Brenden Mitchell; sister, Louise Strauss; and brother and sister-in-law, Pete and Elanor Johnson.
A graveside service will be held at 11 a.m., Tuesday, March 6, at Oleander Memorial Gardens.
Memorial donations, in lieu of flowers, may be made to Lower Cape Fear Hospice and the local Humane Society.
