    I just fond out about Mrs. Bonesio’s passing from a fellow co worker earler this week foremerly known as Buckley Covalescent Home, now is Ellis Manor. I worked as a nurse at Buckley from 1993-1997 and Mrs. Bonesio was the greatest boss that I ever had. She was understanding, fair, and very knowledgeable. I want to express sympathy to her family and friends and know she is greatly missed.
