  1. We miss you so much already Bernie. We have a cucumber ready for you to enjoy. I’m so glad you got the first one. I’ll never forget when the first cucumber came Gary walked over to get you he told you to be careful not to fall you replied if I fall I will fall for you. I was out front watering the flowers all I could do was laugh.
    We get up in the morning look at your house and expect you to be there. You were such a good friend and neighbor of 16 years. You had such a great since of humor. We love you and miss you so much Bernie. You will always missed and in our hearts. God bless you and your family.

  5. Heaven just gained another beautiful angel! Fly high with the bluebirds and give Larry a big kiss for me. You were like a mother to me and I loved you so. We always had so much fun and tons of belly laughs. The antics we would pull were priceless. Heaven also got one of the BEST Floral Designers I know. I learned so much from you. I will miss you and your phone calls. When Dave answered the phone you would just go on and on about his voice and what he sounded like on the phone. He would laugh. Praying for comfort and peace to your family left behind as I know they are so terribly sad to see you go. Love ya Bernadine!
