Bernd was the son of my parents` friends who emigrated to the USA at the beginning of the 50ties.
He visited my Family when he was stationed as a member of the US Air Force
in France.
He was very handsome and friendly so I liked him at once.
We spent two years together and fell in love.
After two years he returned to America, but we stayed in touch until his death.

Anna Mae and family, I am sorry to hear about Bernie. I worked for him in base shops. He was a great boss. Oh how many laughs we had. My brothers golfed with him. He was one of a kind. God bless you all.
