Bertha was a beautiful awesome woman, who welcomed everyone with open arms and always made you feel like family. No matter how much time had passed between visits, it was as if no time had passed and you had just said goodbye to her. She had a laugh that was infectious and a kindness that had no match and she did have lots of patience, she put up with me as a co worker. She truly is a beautiful soul and will be missed dearly. Our prayers and thought are with you Bertha and Leo and your family. She's in good hands with God and your father and your grandparents at her side. When I think of her I think to myself, what a beautiful flower that adorned this world with grace, beauty and how she made my life better with her in it...
With a heavy heart, I won't say goodbye but I'll see you later with some huggs n kisses...
