On Thursday, Jan. 28, Bonnie Beatty, loving mother of three children, passed away at the age of 80.
Bonnie was born on June 30, 1940, in Winchester to Mildred and William T. Locke. The family moved to Rocky Mount, where she was an investigator for the Franklin County Sheriff’s Department until her retirement after many years of service.
Bonnie is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Elizabeth and Steve Carter, of Fairfax; daughter and son-in-law Ann and Tom Hopkins of Charlotte, N.C.; and son and daughter-in-law, Brice and Julie Beatty of Boones Mill, Va. She also leaves behind two grandchildren, Kenley Carter of Mechanicsville, Va., and Abby Beatty of Boones Mill, Va.; and many nephews and nieces.
The family would like to thank April, Hannah, Latoya, Deanna, Corinne and the rest of the staff at Commonwealth Senior Living in Christiansburg. They provided personalized love and care for our mother and made her a happy home in their facility. Thanks also to Medi Home Health and Hospice for overseeing Bonnie’s medical care.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you please consider a donation to Medi Home Health and Hospice in our loving mother’s name. You may send a check to: Medi Home Health and Hospice 141 E. Main St., Ste. 500, Pulaski, Va., 24301-5047.
