My sincere condolences in the passing of Aunty Bertie. She was such a fun-loving and classy lady. She always looked like she was walking out of a modelling shoot - always groomed to the 9's. I loved her very much and am sorry to hear of her passing. Big hugs to cousins Dawne, Gary and Lorraine. - Posted by: Robin-Rae Russo (Niece) on: Feb 18, 2017
