Bernard Singleton Obituary
He was born September 5, 1987, in Bronx, New York, the son of Albert and Florence (Scriven) Singleton. He graduated from West Scranton High School in 2006. He went on to graduate with his Associates Degree in Diesel Mechanic from Johnson County Community College.
Bernard loved planting his vegetable garden, working on his suburbans, camping, and listening to music of all kinds. He was an amazing artist but only for fun. He loved to travel. He spent time in many different states when younger and had plans to take our family to all of the states on vacation. Bernard was a friend to all; he had an irresistible smile that brightened every room and laugh that was contagious. He was always willing to lend a hand, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on , or some company and a beer.
Bernard was the best daddy two little boys could ever ask for, he encouraged them to try new things, helped out in Cub Scouts, taught them about gardening and working on trucks, took them fishing and camping.
Bernard was a loving, ornery husband that worked hard to provide for his family. He gave the best hugs and kisses. He was quick witted and so smart. His sense of humor wasn't for the faint of heart but always made you laugh.
Bernard married Cori Hermann on October 31, 2011 in South Abington, PA, she survives. Other survivors include their sons, Roman Singleton and Desmond Singleton; sisters, LaVerne Singleton, and Christina Singleton; brother, Jerome Singleton; 12 nieces and nephews; Sister-in-laws, Kayla (Brian) Ginyard, Kendra (Joe Klein) Hermann, and Carlee (Ryan) Flaming; brother- in- law, Bryce Hermann and mother-in-law, Penny Hermann.
There will be a private graveside service at Maple Grove Cemetery in Lecompton. The family suggests that you share memories on his obituary page.

Bernie, my memory of you takes me back to your childhood days.
A time when your parents would stop in Mt. Pleasant, to visit us, either on the
way to Florida, or during their return home. I remembered how excited
you were about having the opportunity to play in our yard, which was
mainly dirt. You had grown into a responsible adult and a dedicated father,
two of he main ingredients for the making of a great person.
You may have been in the spring of your life as it relates to time, but
we all know that GOD is still in charge. We are not always measured by the
length of our stay, but mostly for the contributions we made along the way.
To the family, stay strong, a new day will come and with it there will be a
new understanding and a new appreciation, and a new joy.
