Dear Anne and Family, So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. I still can remember meeting such a sweet lady. I am sure she will truly be missed but know she is at peace now. May your thoughts of her always bring a smile to your face and love in your heart. Thinking of you.

I only met Mrs Berning a few times in my high school days but to this day I can still picture her smiling caring face. A person that leaves that type of image you know is a very special person and she was.
