Deanna "Dee" Bonvillain (2)
Submitted on 05/09/2005

I am submitting this story on behalf of my mom Deanna "Dee" Bonvillain because I know she has posted her story here before. I wanted to let you know my mom passed away on April 23, 2005 from Stage IV Ovarian Cancer. She fought for 2 long years. We were all shocked that this happened so fast. My mom had the best attitude while battling cancer and we thought she would beat this illness, but we were wrong. She died in peace with no pain. I was there when it happened. I always said that I wanted to be there when it happened. I wish all of you the best of luck and I hope all of you have the same attitude my mom had.
