May 12, 1937- April 29, 2020
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Vonnie, loving wife, mother and sister.
Vonnie is survived by her loving husband of 59 years, Donald (Ted); son Dean Farmer (Cheryl); and brothers Gerry and Bill.
Vonnie grew up in Kenora and met Ted in 1959 when she moved to Pinefalls to take a nursing job. Ted and Vonnie married in 1961 and moved to Springfield in 1968. There they spent their time horse riding, golfing, curling, lawn bowling, gardening and caring for their many dogs they loved so much. In 1977 they adopted Dean and raised him at the place they still call home. Vonnie worked in health care until she retired.
As per Vonnie’s wishes, cremation has taken place. Interment will take place at a later date.
