William G. Bernsen

I worked with Bill at Bathe Electric and he in turn worked for me when I opened my own electrical business. Bill was a top notch wireman and an even better friend. We lost touch when I was reactivated for Operation Dessert Shield/Desert Storm in late 1990. I never knew where he actually lived and couldn't locate him after I came back. Now that I am older and miss those "good 'ol days", I would certainly enjoy spending time with him. I'm more than a day late and dollar short. If anyone...

My thoughts go out to Bill's family. Bill was always a treat to come across on the ham bands, and I talked with him many times over the years.

Sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I knew him many years ago and enjoyed his company very much.

Bill was a loyal 6 meter scatter operator, and I worked him almost every morning over a 750 mile path. He always had a great signal and an upbeat personality. 73 my friend, Lee KZ4RR

Rest Well Bill, Thank you for the contacts on 6 Meters, and thank you for your service ! We will miss that big signal, but know you will always be with us on 50.125 !!! 73 de KB3RHR Craig A. Yoho, Pittsburgh, PA..

To the family of Bill, I thought Bill was a great guy always had a smile on his face right down to the end. He will be missed by many, especially those over the airwaves.

Bill was a great friend to my husband Scott Blood, and his father Alan Blood. We appreciate his service to his country and really admired his excellent electrical knowledge and skills. He will be missed by our family. We wish to express our sympathy to his family and friends.

Bill will be dearly missed. He was a trusted friend who was always willing to help in any way possible. I am so sorry for our loss, but joyful for his life everlasting.
