                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 12, 2012

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Bonadine P. 
``Bonnie'' Nguyen who passed away on Thursday, August 16, 2012 at the 
age of 70 after battling an illness over the past three years. She is 
survived by her husband of 25 years, Le; her four sons Paul, Matthew, 
Andrew, and Jason; her brother, Richard; and her two sisters, Carol and 
Tina.
  Bonnie was born on June 16, 1942 in Columbus, Ohio and lived there 
until moving to the Cleveland area where she spent the last 31 years of 
her life. She became a Licensed Practical Nurse, a profession she held 
for 34 years, and spent most of her career with the Century Oak Care 
Center in Berea, Ohio--a center that opened in 1987 as a response to an 
increased demand in quality nursing home facilities.
  When not working, she enjoyed traveling with her mother and spending 
time with her children; attending weddings, picnics, and family get-
togethers; dancing; and watching Cleveland Indians baseball.
  Mr. Speaker and colleagues, please join me in honoring the life of 
Bonnie Nguyen.
