  1. Kelly and Roger, your mother was, and still is an angel to us all. She never knew a stranger…she made everyone a friend. For several years, I have sat with her for an hour every two weeks and laughed the whole time. She is a tremendously special person, a volunteer to many of time and love. She made the world a better place. She leaves a legacy that we should and will attempt to live up to. I know you are as proud of her as your mother, as I am a friend. God bless you all, and God bless you Bernie. Sending hugs and love, Dawn

  2. An Angel We Call Bernie On the day that you were born, God looked down and smiled. I have sent an Angel to them, To share for a little while. Bernie will be a wife, a mom, A grandmother, and a friend too. She will be a source of light, To shine on all she knew. She will leave a legacy, Of kindness, volunteer and smile. She will teach them all to love, During her little while. Now your work on earth is done, Please come and take my hand. As my Angel theres more to do, With ME in the promised land. When you hear the roar of a bike, Or see the Red Cross run, You will know that Bernie is near, Still loving everyone. Bless you Bernie. Be at peace and watch over us all. -Dawn Stewart

  3. Just wanted to let Kelly & Roger know they have our prayers and sympathy. I remember them from Bethel Christian School in the ’80’s. Mrs. Blsck
