Bernadette, I just recently learned of your passing. I was blessed to have met you at Curves so many years ago. I will always cherish our therapy walks together. I know you are having the most wonderful time with your mom and dad up in heaven. God gained a special angel. I will always be grateful for you and our friendship. Happy Heavenly birthday, my dear friend. Until we meet again

My dear Bern. It is almost impossible to put in words when we shared a lifetime of love.
To realize that the phone will never ring again with the voice saying "Hi Jo, what's happening. "followed by 2 hours of stories and laughs.
You have a place in my family's life that can never be forgotten.
I could cry everyday and it will always bring back thoughts to the shore of good times, the celebrations that we share with friends and family and The Talks that never ended.
Vance,Vanessa,Concetta and Sonny,Kathy, everyone in my family who met my Bern, loved Bern.
You are missed .
Love, Joann

I’ve felt extremely blessed and grateful beyond words to have known and have Bernadette as my very dear friend for over 40 years around many family events, outings, and holidays she shared with myself, my family, and friends. Her beautiful smile and outgoing personality light up a room with every person she met.
When you met her you feel like you knew her your whole life. Bern, you will be sadly missed though many amazing memories together will be there to reminisce forever. Rest in peace with bundles of angels and glistening stars around you in your next journey.
God Bless you today, tomorrow and always my special friend.

Bern was a wonderful person. We shared a lot of laughs and also tough times when our Brandt Bensalem office closed. Very sad to hear this news.

Dear Bernadette,
Although you are the cousin of my husband, Bobby, we didn’t see each other often. But with family, time doesn’t matter. We are there for each always, no matter how much or how little time has passed.
I feel blessed to be part of Bobby’s family, just as he is part of mine (the Mennite family).
The guest book allows one to put a candle or a photo when one signs it. A candle is a beautiful symbol. And I love to see all the smiling faces in the photos, including yours, of course!
But what I’m going to try to put here is a rainbow , as a symbol of all the color and joy and hope you brought to everyone you met.
You were a selfless, compassionate, joyous, loving person. I feel blessed to have known you.
And though I prayed for you when I learned that you were ill, I believe you probably don’t need my prayers anymore. I believe that you are with the Lord.
My prayers now are for the members of your family and for your friends.
I know how much my husband and all his relatives loved you. I know how deeply they will grieve. But I will do my best to offer heartfelt prayers to God, asking him to bring them His comfort and peace.
Love,
Bobby’s wife, Linda

What can I say, Soul Sister, the world was a better place with you in it. Your positive energy & bright light was total on a cloudy day. Your kindness & compassion for the furry gang & birds meant so much. You will be greatly missed, but your memory is such a blessing, & your friendship has blessed me. Luv ya xoxo

Bernadette was a wonderful lady with a beautiful smile and great sense of humor. She will missed very much on this earth, but will be reunited with her loving parents in heaven. May she rest in peace in God's kingdom. Amen.

Reconnecting with you, my grade school friend, has been a wonderful ride! Thank you for gracing my life once more with your wit and beauty and uplifting outlook about life. I bet you and your favorite Saint Katharine Drexel have alot to talk about.
