Bernard was a special friend to my grandmother, Dorothy Call. He looked after her and made her smile with his wonderful violin skills.

Bernard was also a good violinist! He played for us several times for prayer services. I enjoyed visiting with him on a few occasions at St. Joe's also and he was interesting to talk with. I'll miss him.
