Worked with Bert for many years at the P.O. Don't remember ever having a question Bert didn't have the answer too, and he was always correct.
Rest in peace Bert, you earned it!

Bert Armstrong was a gererous and kind uncle who loved his neices and nephews like they were his own children. Berts favorite meal was a nice thick tender steak cooked outside on an old fashion charcoal grill.Bert's favorite place was at the Cabin. Combining his family, with a good steak while sitting on the porch at the cabin was his idea of living. We hope you are enjoying those memories while looking down on us from heaven. Until we meet again, we love you and miss you.
