Deb,
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Bertie. Anyone who knew Mom and the rest of your family were truely blessed. I was so honored to be friends with your father Terry and brother Dennis. Words could never express how nice it was to be part of the family. I Loved your mother and father like my own and Dennis and I will always be brothers.I cherish the times. Bertie had the love for her family and friends. I will never forget going to Foxwoods with her and her love for those birds in the yard "Cardinals". I am very sure that Dad, Mom and our brothers are together in Heaven and Dennis is playing his guitar for Dale and Mom is sitting with Dad watching us here. They are together again and so deserving to rest in peace with our Lord Jesus Christ. I loved all of them and miss the laughter and moments together. R.I.P. my beloved friends and family.
