Bertie was one of the most interesting, nice and funny people I ever knew. I feel very lucky to have had her for a friend.

Bertie was a wonderful woman who you would always see working in her yard and loving it. She was a very independent in her ways. She taught my daughter and I how to play Kings in the Corner Card game at SPJ Card Party and she was a joy to be around at the Casino Trips.
