  Imelda B. Bonell, 94, of Kenosha died peacefully in her sleep on Sunday, March 13, 2016, at Home Inspired Senior Living Center, Somers. Imelda was born on Dec. 30, 1921, in Kenosha a daughter of Leo and Mary (Wilpolt) Berres. She attended St. George Elementary School and was a graduate of Kenosha High School. As a young woman, Imelda was employed in the office of the Simmons Co. in Kenosha. Following her marriage she dedicated herself to being a proud and attentive wife and mother. On March 15, 1944, at St. George Catholic Church she was united in marriage to Dr. Blair Bonell. Sadly, he preceded her in death on Jan. 22, 2007. Imelda was a member of St. Elizabeth Catholic Church and a former member of St. Mark Catholic Church where she had been a member of the Christian Women. She also taught CCD and assisted in the Learning Center while a member of St. Mark. She was an avid golfer and could often be found playing a round at either The Kenosha Country Club or Bristol Oaks. She immensely enjoyed playing Bridge throughout her life. As a season ticket holder she was a consummate Packers fan. Her favorite memories were created as the family joined together at the family cottage in the North Woods of Wisconsin. Left to remember Imelda's legacy are her five children. Thomas (Cynthia) Bonell, Mary Alice (A. Lee) Dickerson, Jean Ann (Martin) Burns, Michael (Marie) Bonell and Theresa (Richard) Meeker: her fourteen grandchildren, and 27 great grandchildren. She is further survived by her daughter in law, Jamie Bonell; her sister, Lorraine Wettengel, and two brothers, Eugene (Lois) and Gerald (Marlene) Berres.
