Bernadette O'Brien

Bernadette and I were Friends from the Get Go. Our Birthdays were 1 day apart - she would always tell me that she was 1 day Older and Wiser. We played together at the Bennett Mining Location and in Hibbing. Stayed at her parents cabin ( which she inherited) & their house in Hibbing, MN. Ran a Kool-Aid stand and made enough $$$ to have Dinner by ourselves at the Sportsman Cafe in Hibbing - we were 8 or 9 yrs old. We had a "Club" that you could belong to provided you lived on a...

Bernadette! Look at all these strangers you´ve inspired. You were one of the wittiest, smartest people I´ll ever know. And you made a mean jello mold.

The island Bernadette speaks of is on Little Jay Gould. Many relatives are buried at Wildwood cemetery near Cohasset. Her adventuress ways brought her elsewhere.

I've never met Bernadette but I sure wish I had! I was looking at the obituaries to find someone else and I stopped at her page because she looked like she was adventurous and lived life to the fullest and I knew I would get words of wisdom. I want to live like Bernadette again. And I will! What an inspiration she is even after passing her legacy lives on and so I thank you tò her friends in her honor. Sincerely Carrie

You were the most amazing grandma anyone could have(alongside grandma street lol) I could go on for pages but ill keep it short. Bernadette was the most loving steonghearted kind woman. I remember one time she found a mcdonalds receipt in grandpa's pocket doing laundry and he never lived jt down "I mean how dare he she cooked everything from scratch and was so delicious". He was in the dog house for a bit for that one. I love you gma until we meet again

I was just searching local obits and saw yours was written in first person. Thank you for this! Hopefully God let´s you read your obit fanmail - that´s a phrase I never thought I´d ever say! This was helpful for a mid-40`s woman starting life on her own.

Oh my gosh!! I didn´t know you but,I wish I had..You are amazing

Bernadette, I remember the chats you and mom had. She always said such great things about you. You were a great lady. I´m glad my nephew has such a wise, smart, amazing grandma! I know you were always there for him. Enjoy your days now with Phil....ill bet he is happy you two are together again!
