| Today's News Herald published on May 30, 2025 - Lake Havasu City, Arizona - June 15, 1947 - May 1, 2025 Emily Faye Bonnett - lovingly known as "Nana" - passed away peacefully on May 1, 2025. She now rests in the presence of the Lord, reunited with her Granny and Pop, her parents, her grandson Brandon, and other beloved family members who went before her. Born in Century, Florida, Emily was raised with a faith in Jesus Christ, which guided her throughout her life. No matter where she lived - including across the U.S. and Guam as part of a military family - she always found a Baptist church to attend. As an adult and Mother, she made sure her daughters, Lora and Lisa, were raised in that same love of the Lord, consistently attending church and Sunday school. Emily was a caregiver by nature - from helping raise her younger siblings to working as a CNA and later devoting herself to the children of Tristate area for over 25 years in the foster care system. She lived a life of service, compassion, and unwavering love. She taught life lessons through action: how to cook, play cards, stay strong, and love others deeply. She is survived by her siblings Barbara, Greg, and Janet; her daughters Lora and Lisa; eight grandchildren; and 18 great-grandchildren. Emily leaves behind a legacy of faith, love, and quiet strength. Her presence will be deeply missed but forever cherished. A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, May 31, 2025, 11 a.m. - noon at Calvary Chapel Redemption Hill, 2925 N. Kiowa Blvd, Lake Havasu City, AZ 86404. All are welcome. |
