Bonnie King was born on September 16, 1951 to Lawrence and Marguerite (Morin) King of Argyle MN. She was baptized, first communion, and confirmed into the catholic faith at St Rose de Lima Church in Argyle MN. The Family moved to Red Lake Falls MN when she was 8 years old. She attended St. Joseph's Catholic Elementary School and graduated from Lafayette High School in 1970.

On Sept 19th, 1970 Bonnie married Richard Knott. They resided in the area with their four living children. Bonnie graduated from Thief River Falls Technical College with a degree in nursing in 1991. She worked as a nurse for many years, mostly in long-term care and for Hospice of the Red River Valley. She loved being a mom and a nurse! "I love being needed" and loved the patients she cared for.

She was involved in her children's activities. She was a "hockey mom" which kept the whole family busy. She was active in her church and volunteered at St. Joseph's School when she could. Bonnie was passionate about the pro-life movement and worked in many capacities for life. She worked as a counselor for 3 years at the LifeCare Center in Thief River Falls MN. She also volunteered as a team member for Rachael's Vineyard (a ministry which helped post abortive women to accept God's forgiveness and mercy.)

Bonnie's hobbies included quilting, hunting, fishing, and writing. She also loved Bible studies. Bonnie's favorite thing to do was spend time with her family. Upon retirement she had more time to do those things. She became a volunteer at the Fair Meadow Nursing Home and Essentia Hospice when she lived in Fertile MN. Bonnie felt especially blessed to have had a strong support system of friends! It was her desire to thank them all one last time. Some were like sisters to her.

Bonnie is survived by her daughter, Amy (Randy) Trudell of Warren MN and 3 sons Andy (Lacy) Knott of Red Lake Falls MN, Aric Knott of Thief River Falls, and Alex Knott of Moorhead MN. She is also survived by her 3 brothers Jerry (Julie) King of White Bear Lake MN. Tom (Carol) King of Warroad MN, and Scott (Shirley) King of Moorhead MN and her sister Mary Jo (Terry) Schmitz of Red Lake Falls MN. Her Grandchildren are Casey, Abbie, Cassidy, Jenica, Conner, Gretta, Emma, Coby, Braxton, Frankie, Zoey, Easton, and Hudson. She has one great grandson, Jabbar.

Bonnie is preceded in death by her parents, 2 infant daughters Mary and Abbie, a brother Wayne King, a sister Nancy Zaretsky, and 2 nephews Simon Schmitz and Brian King.

May the road rise to meet you May the wind be always at your back May the sunshine warm upon your face The rains fall soft upon your fields And until we meet again May God hold you in the palm of His Hand.
