On Thursday December 14, 2023, our beautiful loving and amazing daughter, sister, aunt, granddaughter and friend passed away at the age of 17 years.

Jaimie Erica Jade Bonnell was born on November 2, 2006 to her loving parents Chris (Nealey) & Dave Bonnell.  She was the youngest sister of Devynn Deacon, Jailyn Bonnell and Mikayla Deacon (Tyler), “Aunt Jam” to Amelia, Emma and Nova and forever loved by her grandparents Ken Nealey (late Linda) and Marilyn & Eric Bonnell.  She will be remembered by many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Jaimie loved life.  She was attending Blenheim District High School while completing a co-op placement at Harwich Raleigh Public School in preparation for her future career as a Child & Youth Worker.  She loved children, and they loved her.  She had a kind and caring personality who was willing to drop whatever she was doing to help someone who was in need.  She was an amazing athlete who enjoyed many sports and was proud to be the sole survivor with her dad in the 2023 Blenheim Youth Centre Survivor Challenge.  In her spare time, she loved being a valued team member of Tim Hortons in Blenheim.  Her great smile and easy going personality will be missed by her co-workers and regular coffee groups who visit every day.

Friends and family are invited to the Blenheim Community Funeral Home on Sunday December 17, 2023 from 3:00 – 5:00 and again on Monday December 18, 2023 from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.  A Funeral Service conducted by Pastor Bill Terris will take place on Monday following the 3:00 visitation time.  Cremation will follow.

For those of you who would like to remember Jaimie with a memorial donation, considering the Blenheim Youth Centre would be more than appreciated and a true reflection of Jaimie’s passion in life.

So sorry to hear of your family's loss.

I was fortunate to teach Jaimie for a couple years at Harwich Raleigh. She would always stop to chat when she saw me and always greeted me with a big smile and friendly « bonjour » at Timmie’s. Her sincere and caring nature was felt, and will be missed, by all those who knew this delightful young lady. My sincere and heartfelt condolences. 💔

Jaimie was a valued team member at Timhortons. She was always so clumsy giving me such anxiety as her manager. But we loved joking around together about it. Here at our store we always called her “Jamison” . I send deepest condolences to the Bonnell family and loves ones❤️ my heart goes out to anyone who’s had the pleasure of knowing Jaimie

Our deepest sympathy to your family

Mikayla, Sending love and prayers to you and your family❤️🙏 Hugs and Love my friend❤️

My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Jaimie You were a great friend and colleague and made everyday working together so much fun. I can't believe you're gone. You were too young to go with too much and so many big plans. I'll forever remember when we went to watch Avatar 2 and I forced you to watch the first one before we went cuz you never saw it and how we fought over a Kinder Egg on the way home. I still have it and I've kept it in my tip cup ever since. You were too young and too Lively to go I'll miss you forever friend

My deepest condolences to Dave, Kris and the family. Such a great loss to have to go through.

Heartbreaking. Sharing your saddness for the loss of your daughter. Rest in Peace young lady. ❤️

Jamie was a great cousin, I knew I didn’t get to see my family as much as I hope for. But she was caring and lovely person to be around. She was talented in all her spots actives. She was way too young to die at such a young age. You’re in my heart no matter what. I love you kiddo. I’ll pray for you everyday.

I can not imagine the pain you are dealing with right now. No parent should ever outlive their child. My heart breaks for you Dave, Chris and your family. You are in my thoughts and prayers at this extremely difficult time.

My heart goes out to all of you during this time. I may not have had many chances to meet her but I sure kept up with her achievements via messages from her family. You will be missed Jamie. Rest in peace.

Words can never express how deeply sorry I am . Jamie was the sweetest girl that you could ever know. I will miss her beautiful smile and out talks at Tim hortons. Rest In Peace sweet girl, you will be missed but never forgotten ❤️

So deeply saddened by your loss of Jamie. Our sincere condolences to your family. You are in our prayers.

Deeply saddened at the loss of Jaimie. I still remember when she came to our TNT program at Glad Tidings. She was so caring and encouraging to the other kids.
