Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • We send you all our condolences,we didn't know of Bertha moving or her passing until today when we got our Christmas card returned. Bertha will always have a place in our hearts as she was a woman that showed and lived her Christian faith and love as did Frank. We praise God she is now with the Lord. - Posted by: Peter and Louise Friesen (Friends ) on: Dec 22, 2016

  • Bertha was a dear lady who was loved by many. She will always be a part of my memories and I honor her memory. She was a dear friend with a lovely loving family who always welcomed me in their home. - Posted by: susan Loeppky () on: Sep 25, 2016

  • Bertha has gone to her final rest. I will miss her terribly. I loved this kind, generous, beautiful soul. She was the embodiment of how to live life. I will carry close to my heart our conversations, the generous way that she included me in her family, and let me call her "Mom"! I will end this message with our usual way to say goodbye. "I love you, I love you, I love you." - Posted by: Teri Walker (friend) on: Sep 01, 2016
