Bonnie Kaser Obituary

Bonnie Lee Kaser, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, July 1, 2025, at Denver Hospice in Denver, Colorado, with her devoted husband Ron by her side. She was 83.
Born on June 7, 1942, in Elkhart, Indiana to Thelma and David Curran, Bonnie's life was one of curiosity, compassion, and resilience. Her early years took her from Indianapolis to Canaan, New York, and ultimately to Baltimore, Maryland, where she graduated from high school. Bonnie's intellectual drive earned her a scholarship to Ohio State University, where she graduated fourth in her class with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration in 1964.
In 1966, Bonnie joined Boeing in Wichita, Kansas, where she met Ron. Bonnie and Ron's first date was on Ron's 24th birthday, March 31, 1967, and just months later, they were married on August 21, 1967, at Osborne Christian Church in Osborne, Kansas. In true Bonnie fashion, she kept life delightfully spontaneous-Ron did not meet her parents until the night before the wedding.
In 1968, Bonnie and Ron made Osborne their forever home. Family was Bonnie's greatest joy. She welcomed her first son, Kevin, on October 10, 1968, followed by Shawn on January 18, 1972. Bonnie enthusiastically supported their school activities throughout the 1980s and was blessed when her parents moved to Osborne in 1990, allowing her to spend cherished time with them.
Bonnie brought energy and warmth to every facet of her community. She was a proud member of P.E.O. and a founding organizer of Osborne High School's after-graduation parties. Her passion for playing cards-especially bridge and pinochle-was matched only by her dedication to civic engagement, including her contributions to Osborne's centennial celebrations.
Bonnie dedicated over 30 years of service to Parkview Nursing Home, retiring in 2008 as its business manager. Even before retirement, Bonnie and Ron journeyed together to countless destinations, embracing the joy of travel and shared experiences.
Bonnie was preceded in death by her parents, Thelma and David Curran; her brother Joel Curran; sister-in-law Jan Curran; and sister-in-law Nancy Scott.
Bonnie is survived by her loving husband of 57 years, Ron Kaser, Osborne, KS; her sons, Kevin Kaser, Ormond Beach, FL, and Shawn (Hope) Kaser, Omaha, NE; and three treasured grandchildren: Piper, Elly, and Beckett. She is also survived by her brother Mark (Cathy) Curran, Iola, TX; brother-in-law Bill Scott of Wamego; nephews Brian Scott and David Curran; and nieces Lisa Schreck (Scott), Diane Henderson (Curran), April Falco (Curran), and Ashley Moore (Curran).
Bonnie's legacy is woven into the lives she touched with grace, generosity, and unwavering spirit. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
