Share your Memorial with Family & Friends

Joan, Keith, and family, My prayers for you as you sorrow, but not as those who have no hope, as Bernie is home with Jesus. May He comfort you with the assurance that someday all who belong to Jesus will be united around the throne. Bernie is a sweet brother in the Lord.

Bernie was a wonderful man that I had the pleasure of knowing for many years. Glad to see he had such a long and fun retirement. All my love and best wishes to his family. Blair Crawley

When I think of my Uncle Bernie, I think of a blessed life well lived for Christ. I am so very grateful for all the times we spent together, with him and Aunt JoAnn, the wonderful memories of days gone by that our families shared together while we were growing up, intermingled with tons of laughter. He made me feel like I belonged after I lost both my parents, and for that I will be forever grateful, thank you Uncle Bernie, you will be forever loved and missed.

Dear Joann and family, We have so many memories of times spent studying God's word with Bernie and Joann. He was a faithful believer who loved Jesus. He was also a faithful friend who prayed for our family over many years. We were blessed to know Bernie and will miss him, though we have joy in knowing he is with His Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
