Two memories I will always treasure are: The first time he held my son Chris. He was so proud to get to hold him and be “Uncle Bernie”. That memory is forever in my mind. The other is that Bernie came from Texas to Mississippi to attend my pinning & graduation ceremony from nursing school. Linda and Alora was with him. Alora was only 5 months old. It meant so much to me that he came. I miss you brother!!!:heart:‍🩹:heart:‍🩹:heart:‍🩹A candle will always be ablaze for you in my heart
