Bonnie Jean (Bassett) Kenyon
On Monday, March 24, 2008, our Lord Jesus came to room 513 in the Robert
Packer Hospital and took Bonnie Jean (Bassett) Kenyon by the hand and walked
with her into glory. Bonnie was the loving wife of Ronald R. Kenyon, who she
married on September 2, 1962. The couple had 45 wonderful years together.
Bonnie was born on November 15, 1943 in Roaring Branch, PA. She was the
daughter of the late Carl D. and Nellie O. (Campbell) Bassett. Bonnie

Eureka, the Martha Lloyd Community, loved taking care of children both in her
home and at Little Learners Daycare, ran the Kenyon’s Gulf Station in Sylvania
with her husband Ron from 1986 to 1991, and worked as the office manager for
the Mark Germino Insurance Agency in Troy form 2001 to December of 200
Bonnie loved the Lord and spent many intimate hours with him, and her faith
radiated to everyone she met. She was a member of the First Baptist Church of
Troy and the Victory Church in Troy. Bonnie was a Sunday School teacher, was
a former deacon at the Baptist Church, and had a music ministry with Ron that
