I worked with Berny when he would volunteer at Carnegie Hill Neighbors. He was such a joy to work with always in such good spirits. I will always remember how dapper he looked always dressed to the nines, doing what he could to help others. He along with Ann Darmstetter were such a team.
I pray that you will find comfort in this time of grief. May our Heavenly Father be near and bless you all. I have great faith in the gospel of Christ, but that does not take away the missing and emptiness we feel.
Love the great photograph. I never knew Berny when he was young, such a great tribute.

When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. So treasure that memory. I am truly sorry about the loss of your loved one. May the peace that comes from God strengthen and support the family to endure this difficult time. Deepest sympathies.
Jeremiah 29:11

Just heard of the passing of Bernard. It was disquieting to hear of his loss. My condolence to the Hughes Family. Bernie lived a long and gallant life, filled with love and wisdom. I pray that God ease your pains, so you can calmly reflect on his life with fond memories. Job 33:30
