I want to send my condolences to the family... I had gotten to know this fantastic person thru Donna and the Dough Company... Bernie and Donna came in at least once a week to eat and I was lucky enough to become friends with them... He will be so sadly missed by myself and the girls at the resturant ... I did however spend his last birthday making him smile as he did to me every week .... Love to all his family and close friends(Donna )
Sincerely
...

I was saddened to read of Bernie's passing. He was a dear friend.
I remember well when would stop to see my dad at his car business. Bernie parked his pride and joy Ford on the lawn and two would enjoy talking about cars, cars and anything that pertained to them.
Bernie loved what he did and was proud of his work.
He will be missed a great honest hard working man.
