To My Father one of the Kindest Gentle Soul, Who taught me so much and took us on so many adventures traveling all over the United States and Canada… On of my favorite memories was with just you and me in the Bad Lands watching the sun rise. I will miss you so much but all the memories will forever be in my heart. Love you so much. Daddy's Girl

Berton had such a good sense of humor; I used to like to hear Berton and Jerry tell stories about the good times they had growing up together. Good friends, good times not forgotten!

Mr. Bunker, Bert, Dad,
I wish I would have had the opportunity to get to know you better. You sound like an amazing, generous man from the stories Terry and Kathy tell. I can see where Terry gets his generous and kind nature from. Through your children I feel like I know a part of you. You raised an amazing man/family
Your future daughter- in-law, Juli.
