Bonnie L. Little (Lebanon)'s Obituary
Bonnie L. Little was born August 26, 1945 in Illinois to her parents, Howard and Shirley Barber. She passed away in her home Tuesday night, November 28, 2023. She was seventy-eight years, three months and two days of age.
She spent much of her childhood in Illinois before moving to Lebanon, Missouri where she would graduate from Lebanon High School. She was employed as a cook at the former Wyota Restaurant in Lebanon. She enjoyed her time there and made several friends there.
On August 14, 1980, she was united in marriage to Glenn Little. To this union, one son was born, Landon. She enjoyed being a homemaker and taking care of her family.
Bonnie was preceded in death by her parents, Howard and Shirley; her husband, Glenn Little in 2016; a grandson, Cody Little; and a brother, Kenny Barber.
She is survived by three sons, Landon Little and his wife, Jana, Lonnie Richardson and Michael Richardson, all of Lebanon, Missouri; one brother, Bruce Barber of Lebanon, Missouri; a sister, Penny of Lebanon, Missouri; three grandsons, Austin, Donavon and Colton; a granddaughter, Katrina Gore; and one great-grandchild.
She enjoyed taking rides to Bennett Spring State Park and taking in the beauty the park had to offer. Her health had been failing and you could frequently find her out her front porch in her wheelchair, watching the birds and squirrels in the yard. She attended Garfield Avenue Church of God as her health would allow.
Her life revolved her family. She loved her children and grandchildren so much and was thrilled when she became a great-grandmother. Though she is no longer with us, her memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
