Bonnie “Mercer” Guy
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bonnie “Mercer” Guy. Bonnie left us April 11, 2023, surrounded by loved ones. She is survived by eldest daughter Amanda, son-in-law Stacey, granddaughters Holly and Claire, and her youngest daughter Heidi. Bonnie also leaves behind those she loved as her own biological children, Anthony Guy, Greg Braga, and countless others.
Bonnie touched so many lives in her 73 years with us which makes this loss so profound. Bonnie always believed in an open-door policy, her door was always open to those who needed a cup of coffee, a hot meal, a warm bed to sleep in or just an ear to listen. Her generosity knew no limits, even in her last days and her family hopes to carry on that legacy.
Bonnie was never happier than in her 32 years as a Yukon resident. She loved the north and all it brought to her, from her time working as a Chef in hotel kitchens, to residing on the bench as a Territorial Justice of the Peace.
Bonnie considered her greatest accomplishments in this life to be her children, her grandchildren, and the close friends she cherished so deeply.
We will be celebrating Bonnie’s life with a gathering of friends and family to be held Saturday May 13th, 2023.
For more information on the gathering, please email her daughter Heidi at: bonniesgathering@outlook.com
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Mae Bachur Humane Society in Bonnie’s name.

I am so very sorry to hear of Bonnie’s passing. Our Parents were friends & our Dads were on the New Westminster Police Force. I connected with Bonnie a few years ago through FB & kept in touch. Rest in Peace my friend, flying with Angels & no more pain 🙏

I have forwarded to you pictures of Bonnie when she was 17 & a student at New Westminster Secondary. We attended Herbert Spencer Elementary together as well & it is not a surprise that she established a strong loving family. RIP Bonnie & loving those elegant fingernails in your photo.
