OBITUARY
Mrs. Irene Talley Bonner was born on June 5? 1936 in Fayette County, Georgia to Mrs. Ida Sue Long and the late Ben Talley. She made her peace with God on July 31, 1981.
She attended public schools in Fulton County, Fairburn, Georgia. In 1956 Irene Talley exchanged wedding vows with Sammie Lee Bonner and from this marriage two beautiful daughters were born.
She united with The Grant Chapel A.M.E. Church in 1962 and was active in various phases of church work. In later years she became a born again Christian.
Irene thanked God for the relationship she had with her last employers, Barbara and James Cooper of Cooper and Associates, from whom she learned so much from August 11, 1980 until she was unable to continue work on February 24, 1981.
Mrs. Irene Talley Bonner was a beautiful lady with a wonderful personality and she touched the lives of many. She should always be remembered by family and friends as the type of person that was very energetic and worked hard at everything she chose to do. She accomplished a great deal in 45 years and everything that can be associated with her reflects the same. The manner in which she raised her daughters was indescribable and both Jennifer and Sandra know that she was very proud of what she had accomplished.
We thank God for bringing this wonderful Lady into our lives.
Irene leaves her two daughters, Miss Jennifer Bonner and Mrs. Sandra Robinson with cherished memories of the love they shared throughout her life. She will also be remembered by her son inlaw, Dennis N. Robinson and her niece, Sarah Dixon. Other survivors are her mother, Mrs. Ida Sue Long; two sisters, Mrs. Ruth Kendricks and Mrs. Ruby Tidwell; one brother George Talley, Chicago, Illinois; A host of nieces, nephews, cousins and
other relatives and friends.
