I was so sorry to read, by chance, of Bernice's passing. Bernice had been my cooperating teacher back in 1974, and I just thought she was the BEST!! I can still hear her soft voice, and I couldn't have asked for a better mentor or friend. I have always been so grateful for her positive encouragement & guidance that started me off so well on my lifelong career.
Please accept my deepest sympathies, Joe. I will never, ever forget Bernice.
