So sad to hear. Rest in peace Bern. He was a good man.

Prayers of comfort sent forth for friends and family.

RIP brother,   Mcdave,,,good man..

Drove Old Bernie a many a mile up and down the road from ATAR to Hickory and then some.
He hunted behind my house a few seasons and always had an interesting story to tell. Shared a few St Jude hunting camps with me and Cory Mattson and Sunny Hill. Lots of memories made. Sad to say we kinda lost touch in the last several years. Priorities change and life takes a different path. My kids and grandson always remembered Bernie. Never a cross work from him although he could get pissed at times. I'm sure he's sitting up there with Rose , aurguing about how many dinosaurs he needs to collect this year.

This one hurts.

I am sorry to hear that!  I don't post much here anymore, but at one time was very active.  Bernie was the best!  I bid on many items that he and his wife donated to St Jude's auctions over the years.  If I remember correctly, he was also a fellow Marine!  RIP brother!

My deepest sympathies and prayers for his family and friends. Lord Jesus, please wrap your loving arms around his family and calm the storm that they are going through. In Jesus mighty name I pray. Amen

This Guy was s Saint.

prayers sent Bernie was one of the good ones for sure!

Condolences and prayers to his family.

Semper Fi, My Brother....

What a great man. He will be sorely missed! Sorry for their loss!

Berne collected dinosaurs all year long and would take them to trad shoots to give to kids. Stuffed dinosaurs, plastic toy dinosaurs, any kind of dinosaur.

Rest in peace, Marine. :(

So sad to hear of Bernie's passing. He was a very kind man, great attitude and a huge heart. I will miss him.

Met Bernie one year at Atar. He was a good man. Also I have a wingbone call made by Bernie.
In a better place.

Rest easy Bernie. Condolences to the family.

 I kept in contact with Bernie on FB.
    He was a fellow Marine.... Semper Fi, Brother.
He is with his Wife now, And I bet she made him some of her famous Turkey soup....
   

Prayers for Bernie's soul.  RIP
