Condolences
to Bernie’s family. I am so sorry for your loss.
I am a 2nd (?) cousin (her and my Dad were 1st cousins) and had the opportunity to meet her several years ago when doing some genealogy in Covington. I have never forgotten her, she was so warm and welcoming. I would appreciate it if you could contact me please at sharnjay@mindspring.com.
Gary,
My condolences on the death of your mother. I remember meeting her and your dad when they came to school to see one of the concerts you had. They were very proud of you!
