Bonita Louise “Bonnie” Corkum
1957-2022
Bonita Louise
“Bonnie” Corkum – 65, of Lower Sackville, passed
away on Thursday, July 14, 2022 at the QEII Health Sciences Centre,
V.G. Site, Halifax, surrounded by her loving family. Born in
Wolfville, she was daughter to the late Laurie and Verna (Tupper)
Schofield.
Anybody who knew
Bonnie knew that she would do anything for anyone and always put the
needs of others before her own. Bonnie was a bright light not only to
those that were blessed enough to have entered her circle, but also to
countless people who she helped despite having never met them. She was
a founding member of Nova Scotia Crime Stoppers, and a proud supporter
of Hope For Wildlife. She had a great sense of humour and loved music
and singing. She enjoyed painting, crocheting and loved animals of all
sizes. Above all else, she was fiercely loyal. Family meant everything
to her. She loved her husband immensely; her two boys were her pride
and joy and her granddaughter, Quinn, quickly became the center of her
universe. She will be deeply missed.
She is survived by her
loving husband of 44 years, Allison; sons, Steven (Jen) and David
(Laura); brothers, Clayton and Bruce (Shelly); sister, Jeannie
(Jamie); sister-in-law, Wendy, and granddaughter, Quinn. In addition
to her parents, Bonnie was predeceased by her brother
Calvin.
At the
family’s request, there will be no visitation. A graveside
service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 20, 2022 in the
Baxter’s Harbour Cemetery, Baxter’s Harbour.
Reverend Ivan Norton officiating. A reception will be held across the
street at the Baxter’s Harbour Community Hall immediately
following the service. Donations in memory may be made to the Sunshine
Room – Centennial Building QEll Health Sciences Centre. Funeral
arrangements have been entrusted to the White Family Funeral Home and
