Bonita K. “Bonnie” Mansfield, 1949 – 2015

March 2, 2015 by Karen Donaldson

CLOVERDALE – Bonita K. “Bonnie” Mansfield, 65, died peacefully at her home 9:30 a.m. March 1, 2015. She was born on June 22, 1949 in Cloverdale, to Othmar “Ottie” and Celeste “Babe” (Heimann) Wannemacher, who preceded her in death.

Bonnie was a 1967 graduate of Ottoville High School. On April 19, 1969 she married the love of her life Stanley D. “Stan” Mansfield of Continental. She worked at Philips ECG for 23½ years, where she met her “little buddies” and kept their friendship till this day. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend; she truly was an angel on earth. She always enjoyed her family’s company and talking on the phone and going to lunch with her buddies. She loved going to church, praying the rosary and reading her daily prayers, writing in her diary, doing crossword and Sudoku puzzles, playing solitaire on the iPad, watching her soap opera and enjoying her “paradise” by the river. She will be remembered by her kindness, thoughtfulness and love she had for everyone, especially for God and his many blessings he bestowed upon her and her loved ones. She was a member of St. Barbara Catholic Church, Cloverdale, where she started the youth choir, and was a member of the Altar Rosary Society and the Catholic Ladies of Columbia, Cloverdale.

She is survived by her husband, Stan and her children: Stacey (Larry) Krietemeyer of Worthington, Stan II (Dawn) Mansfield of Cloverdale, and Stefanie (Nathan) Miller of Columbus; 10 grandchildren: Brandon, Brady, Brock, Bryce and Brielle Krietemeyer, Jonah, Preston and Caleb Mansfield, and Kailey and Kylin Miller; five brothers and sisters, Charlene (John) Willey of Cloverdale, Robert “Bob” (Cheryl) Wannemacher of Lima, Kenneth Wannemacher, Mary Ann (Tom) Clementz and Tom (Carol) Wannemacher, all of Cloverdale; a sister-in-law: Cheryl (Alan) Deatrick of Defiance; 18 nieces and nephews; and 33 great nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her granddaughter: Camryn Mae Mansfield and her in-laws: Robert “Bob” and Virginia Mansfield and Bob’s second wife, Betty.

A Mass of Christian Burial will begin at 10:30 a.m., Wednesday, March 4, 2015, at St. Barbara’s Catholic Church, Cloverdale, with Fr. John Stites officiating. Burial will follow in the church cemetery. Friends may call from 2 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, March 3, at Love-Heitmeyer Funeral Home, Jackson Township (corner of St. Rts. 224 and 634) where a Rosary will be led by the Altar Rosary Society at 2 p.m. and a CLC prayer service immediately following.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to a charity of the donors choice.
