Bonnie Ann Gulley Hendrickson, 63, of Greenville, went home to be with her Heavenly Father
on September 21, 2017 after a long and courageous battle with cancer.
Born in Greenville on November 8, 1953, she was the widow of James “Jimmy” Edward

family takes comfort in knowing that they are now reunited.
She was a 1972 graduate of Carolina High School and was a floral designer for more than forty
years, having worked for Greenville Floral, Jay’s Flowers, Drake’s Flowers and, most recently,
Strossner’s Bakery.
A member of Welcome Baptist Church, she sang in the adult choir, played in the handbell choir,
cooked for many mission trip teams, served as WMU president and taught children’s Sunday
School, VBS and GAs.
Surviving are a daughter, Jennifer Lynn Hendrickson of Greenville; a son, Jeffrey “Jeff” Wayne
Hendrickson of Greenville; two grandsons, Dalton and Fallon; and her beloved fur children,
Duchess and Buttercup.
The love, support, kindness & prayers that were extended throughout this journey gave Bonnie
and her family peace & comfort. The family would like to extend a special thank you to Drs.
Britt Bolemon and Scott Porter, along with their staff; Angie Wagner, Brooke Humphrey and the
entire staff of Pruitt HealthHospice; and caregivers/friends, Joyce Peterson, Linda Johnson, Pam
