Bonniwell served in the U.S. Army in both World War II and the Korean War, and was awarded the Bronze Star. He moved to Alexandria, Virginia in 1961, and retired from the Army in 1967 as a colonel. He then worked as an employment counselor for the Virginia Employment Commission's Falls Church office from 1968 to 1978. He married his wife Maxine (1922–2007) in 1949. They remained married until Al's death, and had two daughters, Linda and Debra, and one son, Ronald.[2] In 2010, Bonniwell was posthumously inducted into the Lower Merion High School Basketball Hall of Fame, as the first alumnus of the school to play professional basketball.[3]
