Bernard Breen Obituary
Bernie was a visionary and entrepreneur who built homes in Ohio, Mexico, and Florida. He enjoyed playing the stock market, golfing, and driving fast cars. He orchestrated adventures for his wife, himself, and many others who came along for the ride. He loved life and made the best of it. In fact, Bernie's mantra to his friends was, "We'll just have one more and call it a night."

To my dear friend Nancy, and all family members, I pass along my heartfelt condolences for your loss. Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Bernie, I have come to the understanding that he was a stellar individual who brought sunshine to everyone he touched. The warm and wonderful memories he created over the years will sustain you as time passes.
