Our condolences to the Preston family, your loss is ours also. My wife was a school mate of his and I met him and his whole family in 1962. We'll always remember the good times we had together. He touched so many people. The world needed people like Bert, he won't be forgotten. GOD BLESS YOU.

When I first came to Tucson in 1961, Bert, Herman, and Ed came by Barrio Anita where I was living, picked me up and we drove out to the desert and passed the Kappa Loving Cup of Thunderbird wine.
I will definetly miss Bert at the monthly get togethers! He always organized the dinners that helped keep us together for all these years. So long to a great buddy.

I looked forward to knowing Bert had arranged the monthly "Boys Night Out" dinner with Ed, Chuck, Herman and Marlon. Chuck could argue the politics of the day with them instead of me. I also remember how Bert used to cook for Delta Sigma Theta meetings at your home and advise us on finances. He'll surely be missed.

I had the greatest opportunity to meet him while i attended cholla high school 84-87. He was extremely kind but also tough. He always had a positive thing to say and for a lot of us was a father figure. As time has gone by i haven't seen him since graduation, but he was never forgotten. Thank for being such an inspiration in my own life. You will be missed.
