So sorry to hear about Aunt Bernice. She will be missed but I know that I will be seeing her again one day along with my Dad and Mother. I remember as a little girl I went to Ohio with my Dad and we stay with your family. I choked on a fish bone one evening while eating dinner. You guys were never around much when I was growing up but Aunt Bernice was a special lady who believe in God. I attend the church that she attended when she was in Masontown. Some of the older people there remember her and have asked about her at times as to where she was at. Will see you Friday. Love to you all.
Judi & family, so sorry to hear about your Mom I loved your Mom. When she would come and visit Marlyn,we had such a good time.My thoughts and prayers are with you. Love, Kay
We are surely going to miss Grandma. She has been part of our family for as long as I can remember. Our families have been as one and Grandma was a big part of it. She always kept us in line and always quick with a joke filled with dry humor and sarcasm. We were very lucky to have a true extra Grandparent who made us smile and laugh. She will be missed but I know for as fact that she is among many friends, family and angels who will take over from here.
Judi, Our sincere condolences to your family and prayers for Bernice’s soul. It was a fun and memorable experience for both me and my husband gideon to have been a part of your mom’s life. Godspeed Bernice. Melinda and gideon pia
Hello All, So sorry to hear about Aunt Bernice, but as you all know heaven has a new angel. One day we will all be together again with those we love and hold dear. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. Love
We feel so privileged to have known Bernice at Heritage Hall. She and my Mom (Jean Buckler) would sit together and just watch everything that was going on. Bernice always made me smile and always seemed to have some laundry that needed to be ironed somewhere! I will miss her smile but she will always be in my heart. God bless you Bernice. We will miss you. Our prayers to your family.
On behalf of Eleanor Freeman, we extend our thoughts and prayers out to everyone
Judi and Family — on behalf of my sister, Mary Bowman, Bernice’s roommate at Heritage Hall, and myself, plesae accept our sincere sympathy on your loss. During this difficult time and the days ahead, cherish those special memories you have. With our love – Mary Bowman and Judy Fry
