Bonnie L. Murray
Bonnie L. Murray, 83, died at home to illness on December 19, 2023.
Bonnie was born in Lincoln to William and Lorld Bruhl, and lived there most of her life.
Bonnie attended Lincoln High School and went to UNL for a short stint studying Early Childhood Development. She worked as a care staff nurse many years before landing at Walmart where she retired from.
Bonnie loved hiking the outdoors and was able to do some wonderful hiking in Missoula, Montana and Colorado Springs, Colorado where she lived for a short while. She loved going to hear her favorite local bands including the one that her best friend Patty Kozak played in. But her favorite pastime was sitting and visiting with friends and family or listening to a favorite pastor on the radio and doing her bible devotions. Bonnie is a member of Capitol City Christian Church where she has many friends she enjoyed seeing every week and doing bible study with.
Bonnie is preceded in death by her parents, seven siblings and son, Leslie (Todd) Bundy.
Bonnie is survived by brother John Bruhl, sons, Mark Bundy and wife Deb, Troy Bundy, and daughters, Lorie Bundy, Nancy Phillips, Vickie Knaub and husband Gary, and Michelle Daake and husband Dustin. Bonnie has sixteen grandchildren and fourteen great grandchildren.
Her family and friends loved her so much and will miss her deeply.

Condolences for Bonnie L. Murray
Michelle Dustin and Emi and families. You are each in our thoughts and prayers. One day at a time. Heaven isn’t that far. Look up and memories flow.
In the quiet echoes of loss, mere words falter, unable to encapsulate the intricate tapestry of emotions that unfurls with the departure of a beloved soul. Life, with its undulating rhythms, thrusts us into the enigma of mortality, a stark reminder that each of us is tethered to the certainty of eventual departure. In this contemplative space, we embark on a bittersweet odyssey of grief, seeking solace in the enduring legacy she leaves behind.
May the recollections of her warmth, the gentleness of her kindness, and the tapestry of shared experiences serve as a balm for our hearts in these trying moments. As we peer into the fleeting nature of existence, let us not only mourn the passing but also revel in the beauty of the moments she gifted us and the profound impact she etched upon those fortunate enough to share her journey.
Her spirit, an intangible presence, persists in the lives she touched, a poignant reminder that in the grand mosaic of life, every thread, every unique story, contributes to an everlasting tapestry. Hers, an indelible thread woven into the fabric of our memories, forever resonating with the beauty of shared laughter, tears, and the silent symphony of moments that define a life well-lived.
In this season of mourning, may we find the strength to navigate the delicate tightrope of grief, and may the love and support of cherished friends and family envelop each heart, providing a sanctuary of solace amidst the tempest of sorrow.
With heartfelt condolences and an abundance of love,
Luke
Our prayers go out to Taylor and her family! We love you Taylor and are thinking of you.
Most loving grandmother a grandson could ever ask for. She had an amazing sense of humor and enjoyed having long conversations with her. Love you and miss you!
I am so sorry for your loss. I got to meet Bonnie while I was at the Ambassador she would come and brighten our afternoon she loved the bands and the music groups that came to entertain after I got to go home
met up with her at music functions she was definitely a friend
My wonderful Grandma Oh how you will be missed! I will miss you at our holiday get togethers and our random just because we wanted to have dinner together and hang out. It all seemed so sudden to us but I know you are joyful to be with Uncle Todd again.
I love you a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck ❤️ That is the last thing you said to me.. 💕 You live on through all of us.
Dear Family of Bonnie Murray,
We send our deep condolences in the loss of your sweet mother. We Enjoyed her in our Bible Study for several years. She asked very insightful questions and was so eager to learn all she could about Jesus🙏
WE ALSO WILL MISS HER!
GOD BLESS, Jim and Mary Owens
My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Family, I have fond memories of aunt Bonnie as I called her from a young child and as our paths crossed later in Life I remember walking into a bar and grille and she was with some of the family fairly well dressed I came in from a construction site I was pretty sure the owner of the place thought when I approach her that he was going to have trouble I gave Bonnie a hug and told him I would hug her anytime she’s family I only heard of her passing at the beginning of 2024 as I was in Lincoln over the New years Holiday she will forever hold a place in my heart and my mind .
