Description : Few Witness readers may recall Mrs. P. J. Bonner, the former Ann Jane Gibbons, who died last week at the home of her daughter in Portland, Oregon, in her 91st year, but she knew many of you by name, at least.Although away from this district for many, many years, Mrs. Bonner never lost interest in the people and surroundings of her childhood. She had been a subscriber to The Witness through all the years, thus keeping in touch with the familiar names and places.Mrs. Bonner was the last surviving member of the family of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Gibbons Sr., of Eagle Hill, Gilford. She left here when quite young but returned during the years for visits with members of her family, some of whom will be recalled by old friends here, namely her sisters, the late Mrs. Kearney, the late Mrs. Thorpe, the late Mrs. Walker, the late Mrs. Gill and the late Miss Bridget Gibbons, and three brothers, the late Thomas, John and Jim Gibbons.The funeral was held in Spokane, Washington, on Saturday of last week.
