We are so sorry to hear of Bernie’s sudden passing. He was a great neighbour of ours for the past 27 years. Until his health failed recently, we would always see him walking to and from the Post Office every morning to get his mail and socialize with whoever was there. We will miss seeing him on his front porch, chopping wood in his driveway, trimming his lawn and giving us his classic hand wave.
Our thoughts are with you all.

Sorry to hear of Bernie’s passing. As I think of Bernie , I see him coming up the road to the post office, always a grin on his face , always pleasant to talk to, I don’t think he really thought there was mail every day, but he loved doing His thing .
