Floyd Thomas Bonner passed from this life on Monday, June 11, 2018, at age 85. He began life as Tom, on a rural farm in Lawrence Co, TN, one of 11 children. He did chores and fished and got into mischief with his siblings and a multitude of cousins and friends. He played football for Lawrence Co High School and graduated from there in 1952. Following graduation, he moved and joined several of his siblings in Wyandotte, Michigan, to find a job. Uncle Sam had other plans; you’re in the army now, Mr. Bonner. Tom became Floyd and served 2 years at Ft Hood during the Korean conflict.

When the war was over, he returned to Wyandotte where he began a career and met the love of his life. Because God moves in funny ways, he was blessed to meet and marry a Lawrence Co, TN girl in Michigan. They had their first son in Michigan and then returned to Tennessee, where Floyd began a lifelong career with the Singer Sewing Machine Company, and where they added a son and, eventually, a daughter to their circle of love. Several Singer moves later, they purchased the Singer dealership in Tullahoma, TN, where he served the community as a business leader for 8 years. Floyd also owned a Singer dealership in Decatur, AL, and a party store in Tullahoma. He retired to grow his garden and love on his family in 2002.

Floyd Thomas leaves behind a legacy of hard work, joy in life, and, above all, love. He will be deeply and forever missed by his beautiful bride of 61 years, Elizabeth Annette Campbell Bonner, and his six children, Jeffrey Thomas & Cathie Christian Bonner of Birmingham, AL, Michael Anthony & Tina Lee Bonner of Tullahoma, TN, and Sharon Gaye & Robert Austell, of Eagleville TN.
