    Sincere sympathy to all at this difficult time –
    I didn’t know Bernard but heard about him in the past
    when I travelled the south shore and talked with family
    often.
    He was part of a large family and that is a blessing not
    many can claim.
    May God be near to each one as your memories help
    you through all the days ahead.
