Bernie was my husband for over 56 years. We dated for four years before we married. He’s been gone for five years and I still miss this wonderful man.

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss my sweet Bernie. I met him at Shadle when we shared a second year Latin class. I was 15, he was 16. I was in love with him from the moment I saw him. We married at 19 and 20 as students at WSU. He completed his electrical engineering degree there and went on to get an MBA at Seattle University. We were married for over 56 years. Two girls, 5 grands.
