FLOOD RELIEF: Backing for Bonnie

Donation protected

Considering all options, after twice being flash floodod in two weeks, she was forced leave her residence due to her health. She lived in New Albany for 25 years, most of those years she was an EMT/FIRST RESPONDER, VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTER and most recentlyvserving as EMA ASSISTANT for the Borough of New Albany, manning the communications via the internet and phone.
Originally from Corning NY, Bonnie's childhood home suffered a similar fate in 1972 when family was displaced by Hurricane Agnes.
She worked in the Corning N.Y. area at places like WCBA Radio as a disc jockey and office assistant, as well as Gates-Rockwell a well known department store. She moved to Pennsylvania to be closer to her job as a 911 Dispatch/operator in 1993.
She was also a member of HARMONY Inc and was in two international award winning quartettes, FOUR IN ACCORD from Corning, N.Y. and SEVENTH HEAVEN from Watertown NY/New Albany PA. She had to stop singing in 1994.
She directed/co-directed the MARK TWAIN MEN'S BARBERSHOP CHORUS from Elmira N.Y. for two years. In addition she coached several quartets in and around Williamsport, Tunkhannock, Wyalusing, Elmira and Corning areas.
She is the mother of four, and has  11 grandchildren, with one great granddaughter!
Currently staying at one of her children’s home nearby, she is in need of obtaining permanent housing and to hopefully secure a vehicle for transport to appointments.
Some may know her from being in the same chronic pain, ARACHNOIDITIS , fibromyalgia, polymyalgia rheumatica, RSD pages, chronic rotator cuff syndrome, tendinitis and diabetes II organizations.
We are setting this up with the goal of at least getting her enough to not worry about medications purchases, which include epi pen and insulin, and to allow her to get special dietary needs. and hopefully remain as independent as possible.THANKFUL TO GOD TO BE ALIVE!!!
