I was deeply saddened by the news of Bert's death. I worked for Bert at Ford World Headquarters for a few years in the early 1980s, and still have very fond memories of those years. Great fun with Bert, Dick Wiseman and Bill Zdeba! We all learned much about life and living from Bert, and he did have great tales! I still use many of the Bertisms I collected! My sympathies to Norma, the girls and Stu. The world has lost a great man, and Bert will surely be missed by all whose lives he touched.
