John C. Bertram

I miss Mr. Bertram. He was kind, loving and considerate. Every time I saw him he had a smile on his face. You are always in our prayers.

One of the nicest men I have ever met. You are missed.

How sad I am to realize the passing of Mr. Bertram. I only met him once, at 3 or so in the morning, when his son Dan, and two other friends and I arrived at his doorstep unannounced in the middle of the night during our college years.

A kinder, friendlier, more charming and helpful man cannot be found. It was a joy to have known him and share in the path of the Bertram family and I will always cherish my memories with he and Ori. Sitting in the kitchen, he explained to me what a French press was and how to use it. At work, his thoughtful, soothingly phrased, explanations of rock mechanics and geology-related Corps of Engineers processes were helpful to me. Driving us to school-related events he remained charming,...

Mr. B was a kind and gentle man who was always concerned with my well-being. Since I lost my dad when I was young and didn't have a role model growing up, I looked to Mr. Bertram as a good example of a wonderful, caring father. I could go to him with any problem and he would always offer sound advice. I will miss him greatly for he was a great man. God bless
