Shirley, I am so very sorry for your loss. I really only knew Bert through you, but I did speak with him on the phone a couple of times about some construction problems and he was so generous with his time and offers to help. I also cherish the stories you shared over the years like the one when you had a new bed delivered and Bert's trials putting it together, and Bert's first fishing trip to Alaska. What a full life he lead. Bert will be greatly missed.
