Born in Marion County, North Carolina, on December 1, 1946, she was a daughter of the late Woodrow Wilson Harris and Jeanette Spratt Harris.


Bonnie was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother whose gentle spirit and servant’s heart touched everyone she met.  She was married for 58 years to her beloved husband, Donald S. Chiles.

A longtime member of Simpsonville First Baptist Church, Bonnie lived out her faith daily through service.  Among other activities, she taught Sunday School, helped prepare bereavement meals, participated in the Senior Saints ministry, and delivered Meals on Wheels to those in need.


A dedicated homemaker, Bonnie was known for her warm smile, her laugh, and her quick sense of humor.  She loved traveling, playing cards with close friends, cooking, and spending time with the people she loved most.
