I just heard from Dad about your dad, my favorite Uncle Bernard. He made my years growing up so much fun when he and I fought over Grandma's coconut cake at family dinners. And I ended up many times at the end of a visit with a "burned" cheek from his whiskers. I loved him very much and will never forget our times together.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your brothers. And know that Mama is standing at the bridge to welcome him home.
Love to all...Deena and family
