Bonnie L. Vincent

Bonnie L. Vincent, age 81, of Colony, Kansas, passed away on Saturday, January 7, 2023 at the Yates Center Health and Rehab.

Bonnie Lea Henegar was born, October 31, 1941 at Iola, Kansas. She was the third of five children born to Ted and Lula (Centlivre) Henegar. Bonnie grew up in rural Allen County on the farm where her parents farmed the land, raised cattle and pigs. Milking cows was the start of every day for Bonnie. She married Gene Vincent on March 6, 1960 in LaHarpe, Kansas after graduating LaHarpe High School, class of '59. Because Gene was in the Army, she soon found herself leaving the farm for an Army base in Vicenza, Italy where they lived for a couple of years.

Many years later, Gene had a Gold Wing motorcycle and Bonnie loved to travel on the backseat with him. They traveled many miles together on that bike and enjoyed riding with friends.

Above all, Bonnie was a dedicated wife, mother, grandmother and homemaker. She loved spending time with family and friends, and enjoyed everything outdoors but especially hearing the birds sing and walking with their dogs.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Ted and Lula Henegar; her sister, Janice Henegar; and one brother, Donnie Henegar.

Bonnie is survived by her husband of sixty two years, Gene Vincent of the home; son, Rick Vincent (passed away January 11, 2023), wife Lesley of Catoosa, Oklahoma; daughter, Lynn Huffman and husband, Paul of Weatherford, Texas; five grandchildren, Nick Vincent, Morgan Tracy, Jacob Huffman, Ami Faughender, and Danielle Rodriguez; and two sisters, Betty Mason and Linda Sweany.

Bonnie's family will greet friends from 6:00-8:00 PM, Thursday evening at the funeral home in Garnett. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Colony Volunteer Fire Department.
