The following sad email came this morning...

Just got this message last night (March 24, 2025) from Steve Livingston '64, that his wife Bonnie Cullen Livingston '64 (Married in the 1964 Class) of nearly 59 years, passed away last night...

"Bonnie passed away this evening with family at her side.  Thought you would like to know.  We cherish all the memories we shared with you and Jon.  Blessings to you and your family.😢"

At this point, we have no details or obituary...

Bonnie and Steve were a legendary couple...They literally "grew up together". They have always been the nicest, sincerest people. We are so glad that Bonnie was able to attend our 60th Reunion for the BHS '64 Class, last October. Bonnie was not well, but they made the long drive from San Juan Capistrano to Santa Clarita to get to visit with all of their high school friends.

Bonnie is already missed by all who knew and loved her...
Our sincere condolences go out to Steve and all of Bonnie and Steve's Family (2 Sons, 2 Daughters-in-law and several Grandchildren), as well as their long time best friends, Julie Naugle Modglin '64 and Mike Modglin '63

Bon Voyage, Bon Bon...We love you.
Pam Zipfel Kirkwood '64 and Jon Kirkwood '64

Sad to hear as Joe was a teammate on BHS football teams and we also were next to each other in lines based on last names at school. Moselle, Moss. Nice guy I really enjoyed knowing at BHS. RIP old friend.
