Bonnie Sue Clemons Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Bonnie Clemons was born in Petersburg, Kentucky on April 1, 1943 to her parents, Robert and Lorraine Smith. She often shared fond memories of her childhood spent in this close-knit community enjoying the camaraderie with her cousin Carolyn. In 1976, Bonnie married her loving husband, David Clemons, and combined their five children into one family. Over the years, they saw their family grow and were blessed with many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Bonnie had a successful career in real estate, obtaining a Bachelor's Degree from Northern Kentucky University, becoming a partner in a local real estate company and serving on numerous boards and committees on local, state and national realtor associations, cumulating in being elected President of the Northern Kentucky Association of Realtors. Her family was always by her side, joining her at Lake Barley State Park for state conventions and Disney World in Orlando for national. A well-deserved retirement has been spent in Florida after moving to Flagler Beach in 2001 to be closer to her children and grandchildren. Bonnie and David enjoyed exploring the area and made many new friends at their local favorite places, even winning local "chili cookoffs" and meatloaf cooking contests. One favorite place in particular for Bonnie was enjoying the sunshine on the beach at Flagler while listening to the live entertainment across the way. Her request was to have this as her final resting place in lieu of formal services. She also wishes to continue to ride the Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail, one of their favorite rides, in a keepsake on David's trike. Bonnie is survived by her loving husband, David; her children, Kathy, Cindy (Dave), Bill (Janet), and Laurie (Jason); her grandchildren and great-grandchildren; her brother, Van (Phyllis); dearly loved neighbors and friends; and predeceased by her son, Kenny. In lieu of flowers donations may be sent in Bonnie’s honor to the Syrian Shrine Cincinnati, 9730 Reading Road, Cincinnati, OH 45215, 513-751-3800, https://syrianshrine.org/
