Berniece was a wonderful person. And totally enjoyed her cooking, Making the pies at the resteraunt. I loved seeing her, always had a smile and didnt care if you called her grandma too. She had enough love for everyone. She took her road to heaven and earned her golden wings. Bless you Berniece for being such a caring individual. your still loved and will be missed.

With sincere sympathy. I started working in Clayton County Health and Zoning when Steve Helfer was in charge. I don't remember what Berniece had to come in for but I do remember helping her out. She was a very nice lady.
