Bonnie and family
I am so sorry for your loss. Kyle and Tyler grew up together on Wallace Avenue in Buffalo. I emailed Kyle on his ship so that he can contact Tyler to give his condolences. There are no words to make anybody feel any better, I wanted you to know I was thinking of you.

THE MITCHELL FAMILY
MAY GOD COMFORT YOU IN THIS TIME OF SORROW. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Bon-Bon, Tyler and family- You all have my deepest sympathy in the passing of your beloved Bernard. He was an awesome man and very much loved by all. He is at peace and out of pain and that is what is important. God will give you both the strength to get through each day. Keep in touch. Much love and god's peace. Joyce Boyer

I would first like to thank God for giving me and many others the opportunity to have known Bernard while he was down here. He was a special person to those who knew him. He will be missed but not forgotten as he takes his place in heaven. It is now up to us down here to take those good memories and trust we can be on the team with him someday up there in heaven. Make your memories good ones so good things are said about you. My prayers are with Bernard's family and friends.

May god Bless the Mitchell family in their time of need. I grew up on Riley St. with the Mitchells and spent many of my young years sharing the fun times with the family at their house. They were like family. I moved to Atlanta in 1996 and had the pleasure of seeing Bernard when he stopped through Ga, and got intouch with my husband Calvin Cooper They were friends from high school. This message comes from the Duff family. May God bless you all and continue to keep his arms around you. Mrs. Mitchell, Marnetta, Joyce, Bam and Calvin. I love you all. Stay strong with your faith.

Love You

This is a picture of the last time I saw Bernard. This is how I will remember him...happy & healthy.

To The Michell Family,

May your hearts be filled with great memories of JOYFUL times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

I have a Nardo moment I would like to share. My memory of Bernard when his family owned the laundrymat on Michigan and Northampton St [I was 10 or 11 yrs old]. I'd see Bernard loading the car to make deliveries-we would start talking!!

Fast forward 2004-2005, my parents tell me about this guy with a nice album collection name Bernard Mitchell...I called to see if it was the same person, yep same guy!!!!

Bernard, my jazz fusion friend, you will be surely missed

To the Mitchell Family, My prayers go out to you at this difficult time. Bernard and I were classmates at Buffalo East High and we graduates together in 1971. I never met a more pleasant, complete gentlement. He well be greatly missed. Rest in peace my brother.

Mitchell Family,

Bernard (Nardo) to his friends was truly an inspiration to everyone that ever met him. A joy to be around and a light in the mist of darkness. We all will miss him but we cherish all the memories that we shared with him. God bless.

We were very sorry to hear of your loss. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers.

To the Mitchell Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as you go through this time of saddness. Our family has such fond memories of Bernard as we attended the same schools growing up. With sincere sympathy, The Shepherd Family

I have great memories of Bernard as being one of the classiest and nicest basketball players I ever had the chance to officiate.....what a CLASS act that was taken from us too soon!!!

Aunt Vi and Family,So many wonderful memories of our family in good and sad times, just know that you are not alone in this moment of grief and my Mom is watching over all the boys now. May the Lord Bless and Keep you always.

I remember this brother from back in the East High School days. I was shocked and saddened by the hearing of his passing. Another apparently good brotha gone too soon. R.I.P. Bernard.

Dear Bonnie and Tyler,
I will always remember Bernard as such a dignified and proud man. Proud of his family, proud of his home. (oh, that beautiful lawn!) As your neighbor, it was so clear the manners and respect he instilled into Tyler. Bonnie, I am so sorry.

I couldn't believe it when I heard. To the family, please accept my deepest sympathy. I believe I've known Bernard since Riley Street when my brother & I were at Woodlawn Jr. High and then at East High. You and my brother were good friends. You always had a wonderful smile for all that came upon you. Rest in peace.

Bonnie, Tyler & Family - I'm so sorry for your loss. Bernard was a pleasant man with a beautiful spirit which I was fortunate to get to know through all of you. I know there are not enough words to take away the hurt of losing him but know that he is resting with the Lord and watching over all of you. God bless you all and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Nardo,

May you rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time. You were one of those people that everyone liked and got along with, which is a very rare quality. Thanks for being my friend.

For those who knew Bernard, he was a special person. I met him and played ball with him at the BAC Downtown many years ago. No matter that he was a college b-ball star at Canisius, he would berate you if you passed up a shot after he's set you up with a brilliant pass. You were one of the guys and he treated you as an equal on the court. He was down to earth, and he had a great heart and a gentle personality. We'll miss you Bernard. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. You will be remembered warmly and fondly. Rest in Peace my friend.

Bonnie & Tyler - please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss - I hope the love of your freinds and family help you through this difficult time

I have fond memories of Bernard-- mostly ON the Kessler Athletic Center basketball court. Rest assured,however; he was a class act and a great guy ON AND OFF that court. My thoughts and prayers are with Bernard's family and friends.

May God keep you and bless you Bernard. You will truly be missed by everyone who knew you. Your gentle words and loving smile made this world a better place.
