Bonnie lived in the Holland/Zeeland area her whole life. She worked many years at DuMez in downtown Holland. Bonnie was a prayer warrior. She had a great sense of humor with a laugh that was infectious. She loved her family, and nothing brought her more joy than spending time with her family. Many memories were made at the cottage she and Wayne owned for 30 years. As wife, mother, grandmother, and Nana, as her great-grandchildren affectionately called her, Bonnie was the matriarch of the family and leaves a legacy of knowing and loving Jesus.
Bonnie will be dearly missed by those who survive her, including; the love of her life and husband of 63 years, Wayne Nienhuis; daughters: Robin (Bud) Miedema, Jodi (Paul) Stevens, Penny (Jim) Houtman; grandchildren: Phil (Tina) Michmerhuizen, Ashley (Brandon) DenHartigh, Sarah (Patrick) Chatman, Jon (Brittany) Houtman, Lauren (Ryan) Kraai, Hannah (Jesse) Heerdt, Jenna Stevens, Haley Houtman, Eric (Stephanie) Miedema, Mitch (Sarah) Miedema; 14 great-grandchildren.
Bonnie was preceded in death by her parents Stanley and Annette DeNeff; brothers Robert DeNeff and Thomas DeNeff.
