Please accept my deepest sympathy in your loss of Bert. Bert was a very kind, loving, and dear person to all of us who were lucky enough to cross paths with her in this life. I worked with Bert at Sears (credit office) years ago. She was a friend to all of us. She had a beautiful heart and soul. May God bless you all in this loss.
