Bonnie Kay Rocco Community Kindness Fund
Purpose
The Bonnie Kay Rocco Community Kindness Fund was established in Bonnie’s memory by her husband, Jack Rocco. Bonnie worked with children at Marshall Public Schools for several years prior to retiring. She always considered her work not really work, because she enjoyed spending time helping children each day. The day after Bonnie retired, she put her time back into the schools by volunteering to read to children because of her passion to impact their lives. One of her favorite volunteer projects was with the Fredonia Grange where she and Jack were able to deliver dictionaries to area third-grade students. She was also a mainstay at the Marshall schools’ sporting events watching and cheering on her kids, grandkids and any other kids who played. You could always find her after the games talking to the players commending them for a good game and giving them a pat on the back. She led efforts for Tekonsha Schools to build a track for their high school athletes. Bonnie's beautiful smile, kind heart and love will be missed dearly by her family and friends. Through this fund, she will continue to support area youth for years to come. The Bonnie Kay Rocco Kindness Fund will support qualified nonprofit organizations, such as, but not limited to, Calhoun County 4-H, Marshall and Tekonsha Public Libraries, local elementary schools and the Marshall and Tekonsha High Schools’ Athletic Departments.
