Bernie was a US Airforce veteran and proudly served as a firefighter with the Nashville Metropolitan Fire Department and was well known for his love of fishing and Nashville sports. His strong hands and kind heart left a lasting impression on everyone he met.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Leo and Myrtle Godin, and his brother, Alan Godin.
