Bernice was a kind, fun loving, quick witted, sweet lady. I enjoyed so many Tuesday afternoons with her when she and several other special ladies volunteered to help in the District Teacher Center. Bernice said, “You can’t get old and be a sissy.” She was no sissy!
Pam & Paula … Some of my favorite childhood memories were made with Bernice & Pookie. Your family raised me for many years & taught me many life lessons. Bernice will always hold a special place in my heart. Keeping you in my prayers.
Pam and Paula, I am so sorry for your loss. I loved your mother dearly. She was such a special lady. She took such special care of Ryan. She would be happy to know he will be getting married next week. Love yall.
So very sorry for your loss, Bernice was a jewel. I have very fond memories of staying in her home daycare during the summer. Continued prayers for the family.
Bernice was such fun to be around. She kept us on our toes at the Senior Center and could work wonders around most everybody up there. We have missed that sweet smile for a while now but we will always remember how kind she was to every person that in the door. Pam and Paula our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Pam and Paula, ya'll are in our thoughts and prayers. May God give you peace and comfort during this time.
