Condolences to the Lefebvre Family. Bernie was a very nice person and a very fine soldier and patriot. He served many years in the military and always fully performed his duty. Further, because of his experience and in the great American tradition of the citizen-soldier, he filled in on any other jobs that needed doing and did them well also.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Janet and family.
May fond memories comfort all of you!
Bernard was such a "Dear Nephew" to me and I have such precious memories of our times growing up; he being only five years younger. I shall always cherish those memories and I wish to remember Bernie at our Barbeau Family Reunion; our last time together! And I shall miss him always!
Love,
Aunt Esther & Uncle John
