August 15, 2023 at 4:39 p.m.


Hornbach, Yvonne "Bonnie" (nee Ratz). Beloved wife for 63 years of John Hornbach. Loving mother of Terri Hornbach-Torres (Efrain), Sandy Hornbach, Cheryl Oevermeyer (Marty), and Doug Hornbach (Bridget). Cherished grandma of Lindsey (Sam) Warren, Michael Oevermeyer, Rachel Torres, Andrew Torres, Daniel Torres (fiance Grace Martorelli), Jeffrey Oevermeyer, Isabelle Hornbach, and Jenna Hornbach. Great grandma of Madison and Emmett Warren. Dear sister of Pat (late Albert "Bud") Moody, Tom (Ruth Ann) Ratz, and the late Irene (Harold) Bruns, Joe (liv. Dorothy) Ratz, Bill (liv. Anita) Ratz, Dolores "Pete" (Bill) Bossert, Alice (Rudy) Gesell, Gene (liv. Marian) Ratz, and Dave (Lorraine) Ratz. Also survived by many loving nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by her parents, Joe and Margaret (nee Tulley) Ratz. Passed away on August 5th at the age of 87. Bonnie was an avid gardener, a lover of books, a quilter, and a baker of extraordinary cookies. But most importantly, her life focus was faith and family. We imagine that she is basking now in God's eternal light and in the warm welcome of the large and loving family who preceded her. Visitation Saturday, August 12th at Neidhard-Minges Funeral Home, 10385 New Haven Rd Harrison, OH 45030. Funeral Mass followed at 10:00am at St. John the Baptist Church, 10010 Carolina Trace Rd Harrison, Ohio. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to St. John the Baptist Church or Alzheimer's Association.
