Dear Saumby Family,
My heart broke to hear of Bern's passing. I will long remember our time together with the big man with the booming voice, infectious laugh & huge heart. I'm comforted by the thought that Bern & my parents are together again. Oh boy, Mom has a big job with those two rascals!
Love always,
Moochie

Dear Mrs Saumby, Jean, Krista and Family, We were saddened to hear of your loss. Mr. Saumby was a smart, wonderful man with a great sense of humor. We first met him when he was the attorney for the home we purchased back in 1986. We became friends through Rita and Shorty and all of us had some nice times that we will never forget.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Our sympathies and love,
Kim, Isa and Kristina Soderlund

Anne Marie, Jeanne and Family, My deepest on your loss. Bernie was our family attorney, neighbor and friend for over 50 years. His humor and wit, yet gentleness of nature were his trademarks. We will reflect on his legacy of a wonderful family and sweet wife as they made 67 years together 6/5. God has him now and we have sweet memories. Bless you all.
