Dear Carol & Karen, Bernie was one of the people who had been in my life for as long as I can remember. He was always there when I was growing up and I recall him fondly. I know my mother appreciated him so much for visiting and helping her while she was housebound for the last years of her life. My sincere condolences to both of you.
