Bernie was a great friend, he was there the day I first met my in-laws and ever since then always made me feel welcomed. He opened his doors to me sometimes when i had no where to go. And he never hesitated to help or offer his kindness and support. He always joked and made fun of me, we shared some great memories that I will always cherish and remember. My prayers for his family, and may he finally find peace and be reunited with his wife. You will be missed Bernie....
