I'm so glad that Bonita got to experience it too ♡

May she Rest In Bliss ~♡~
My deepest condolences to Bunny's family, not only her immediate family, but to all those athletes and coaches that knew her...she was Mama Bunny to us all. She had such a loving, caring heart and brightened everybody's day. We will all definitely miss her!
Bunny will be very missed. Definitely a woman I will never forget that played a huge role in my earlier years. My deepest sympathy to your family.
You all have our deepest sympathy. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Bonita was a very special person and a gift to all that knew her.

Deeply saddened to read--Bunny was extraordinary..
The personification of LOVE--- a smile that 'lit up the room'...
I'll especially remember her availability, while Donna (and her) were battling BC simultaneously.....
ALWAYS there for me as well--when coaching Matt & Jay in BWAA..
Terrible loss---but what a legacy she's left us....
Walk Heaven's street 'Kiddo'---which you sooo justly earned/deserve..
To the Schmidt family ALL----Please accept our heartfelt sympathy..
Lovingly,
Bob & Donna Hester

Jay, Lori, & Bailey, you are in our hearts! Bunny was a mama bunny to so many of us, full of love and kindness. Her loving legacy is unmatched.
Truly one of a kind. It's immeasurable to quantify her impact on those of the Pittsburgh area and beyond. For all of us runners who were fortunate enough to train and compete under her guidance, I hope that we can make her proud by carrying out her love and compassion to those around us. You will be forever missed, Bunny.
Words are limited in describing how much LOVE Bunny brought to everyone around her each and every day. That love lives on in all of us, a gift that Bunny graced us with and which keeps on giving. May she rest in peace.
Our hearts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. Our deepest condolences.
Much love, peace & comfort to you all. We enjoyed our time spent with Bonita at family gatherings & will miss her. -From Tara's siblings & parents
