Bernstein Family: We mourn the loss of Leon Bernstein but rejoice that he is without pain and in a better place. Over the years we had the pleasure of working with Mr. Bernstein and also becoming great friends. He was a man of his word and a truly outstanding family man. We will miss the conversations, the lunches and especially the friendship, but we will always cherish the time we spent with him and his family. God bless you all.
