Bert was a WWII veteran, serving overseas from 1939 to 1945 with the PPCLI in the Sicily and the Italian campaign. Bert had many friends at 909 Admirals Gate who were especially kind and helpful and the family would like to thank all for their generous time, especially during the final months of his illness. At Bert's request there will be no funeral. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
