Not sure what to say?

We are sorry for his loss. Bernie helped my parents many times on their Schoolcraft farm. A wonderful man.

I will always look back fondly on Bernie's silly antics and excellent sense of humor. Over the time I spent with him and his wife, it became clear that Bernie truly had a heart of gold. Anyone who had the opportunity to get to know him will say he was a one in a million guy. I will miss my friend dearly and I am so grateful to have had him in my life. My condolences to loved ones he leaves behind.

Sorry to hear the passing of Bernie. I always admired his passion for collecting Gulf memorabilia and his attention to detail on his cars and his ability to make and old part shine like new. A visit to Bernie's garage was like a step back in time, thank you Bernie for the the great memories and I am sure you will have the nicest looking car in Heaven.

My condolences to the Daggett family. I am a distant relative. My grandmother was Lura Turner Kelly. She was a sister to Bertha Turner Daggett. I live in Otsego Michigan and saw Bernie´s name in the paper. Our love to family

I had the great pleasure of working with Bernie at the Upjohn Company. He will be dearly missed. I wish each and every Family member all the best and you will always be in my prayers. Rest In Peace my dear Friend.

Greg and Jan, even though we haven´t seen Bernie in many years we have many fond memories of him while we were in Schoolcraft. Bernie always greeted us with a smile and a hearty handshake. Please accept our sincerest condolences.

I was in class with Bernie. He was big man on campus. He loved to have a good time in school and a pretty great football player. He will be missed. My heart and prayers go out to his family

Jan & family, I am so sorry to hear about Bernie! I knew him from working at the bank & worked with Jan on church stuff! May you find peace & love in your memories! Prayers!

Was a great neighbor and friend. So sorry for your loss.
