Yvonne (Bonnie) Kimok, 85, passed away peacefully on October 7 ^th at The Landing at Laurel Lake in Lee, MA.

Bonnie was born on April 2, 1936 and was the daughter of the late Charles and Evelyn Bemiss.  She grew up and lived most of her adult life in East Chatham with her husband William.  The couple was married for 51 years.  Bonnie was devoted to their four children and spent much of her time assisting with their activities.  She loved flowers and created beautiful gardens at their East Chatham home.  In later years, she was a "snow bird" and spent winters at her home in Hernando, FLA.  For the past three years, Bonnie resided at The Landing at Laurel Lake where she made many friends and loved participating in activities there.

Bonnie is survived by her four children, William (Claire), David, Jeffrey, and Victoria Castellani (Joseph), as well as six grandchildren (Joseph, Melissa, Michael, Anthony, Katie, and Amy) and several great grandchildren.  Also surviving are her brother William Bemiss (Jane) and sister Nellie Hall.  Bonnie is predeceased by her husband, parents, and siblings Robert Bemiss, Howard Bemiss, and Myrna LaPier.

The family is deeply thankful for the care and compassion that Bonnie received from the staff of The Landing at Laurel Lake and Hospice Care In The Berkshires.

Burial will be private at the convenience of the immediate family.  Donations may be made to Hospice Care In The Berkshires, 877 South Street, Pittsfield, MA  01201. For on-line condolences, visit
