Not sure what to say?

Bregetta, I enjoyed watching all of the happy memories you made with Don. You could feel the love through the pictures. I’m so happy you found your way back to each other. My son was playing chess. It made me immediately think you. Rest in peace. Thank you for your friendship.

Only met Bergetta for just a short time ago when her and her husband first moved to Leland. Her happiness was beaming . My deepest condolences to her husband and the family who will miss her terribly.

It was an honor to have known and worked with Bergetta. Her kindness, warmth, and grace were evident in every interaction. I will always remember her with deep respect and appreciation. I will especially cherish the moment when she told me she’d vote for me if I ever ran for president—her faith in others was just one of the many ways she lifted those around her. My heart is with her loved ones during this difficult time.

I met Bergetta at OLMA. She was a dear friend in high school who always had a gentle soul. Heaven gained a a true angel. My deepest sympathy to her husband and family.

Dearest, Lovely Woman...Bergetta ~

So many times we planned to meet, to have a family BBQ and a live music gathering. We chatted about our mutual love of animals, antiquing and the fun simple things, and the last thing you messaged to me was how the house was all painted purple now and you were excited I come see it...little did I know days later you'd fallen asleep in your bed next to your beloved husband, my dear friend, Don, Vlad, ~V...only to not wake up :( how terribly,...

I will always remember the fun times we had in high school and the laughter we shared. You were always a sweet, loving, caring woman who put everyone else ahead of yourself. I know God will reward you in heaven for kind and gentle ways. God bless you Bergetta. My sincerest condolences and prayers for your husband and family. I will miss you dearly.

I met Bergetta over 20 years ago when I was in college. I was good friends with her sister Amanda and she was living with her and her sons, as their parents had already moved to Wisconsin. I don't have any older siblings, and I thought she was the coolest mom/older sister to be had. She was kind and welcoming to me, and even though I couldn't have been at the house more than a dozen times, I have really good memories and the warmth that was there. I am sadden to hear that she is gone so soon,...

I am very sorry for your loss. Bergetta was a beautiful person; she was kind, caring and thoughtful. She is gone much too soon. Bergetta hired me into my present job. She was a supportive mentor who believed in me and was a wonderful example of what is truly important in business, the people. I won’t forget her and her kindness towards me. May she rest in peace ❤

Our deepest sympathies to Bergetta's husband, children, family, and friends. She was a very warm, happy, pleasant person to be with. She had an unforgettable presence. Everyone will always remember her for her kindness, amongst many other things. ~ Neil & Nicole Altieri
