Obituary

Dallas will be forever remembered and loved as a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, friend, minister of music, & woman of God.

Death notice for the town of: St-John’s, Province: T-N
To the family of Dallas Bonnell!
So sorry to hear of the passing of Dallas. I remember her quite vividly. She had a beautiful voice which she would render at Elim or the Old Old Story. It came from her heart as she sang for her Lord for sure. She is singing around the throne of God now. When I would hear her I would say “listen, that’s Dallas, she’s my cousin”. So proud. A beautiful person inside snd out. May God give you all, the strength that you need today and in the days ahead until you meet again. Sending you all lots of love, hugs and prayers.
