We had lots of fun at retreat - shopping, quilting, eating and looking for Cadbury eggs. Bernley was always excited to return home because she knew Frank would have supper waiting! We'll miss you Bernley. Bev Kramer

Bernley, I met you through a scrappy quilting class a few years ago. Now I am kept warm by the starry quilt that serves as a blessing of your love of quilting. Rest in peace.

Bernley was a beautiful person (inside as well as outside). She had a ready smile for all and shared her exhurbance for quilting and life in all aspects of her person. Bernley will be sincerely missed by all.
