I am saddened to hear of Bernie's passing.
I will always remember the trips we took, the conventions we attended.
He was a great friend.

I'm very sorry to hear of Bernie's passing. I knew him through the Oak Park model railroad club. My sympathies and prayers are with Bernie's family.

So very sorry to hear of your loss.
I have so many fond memories of "Jr" (as I knew him) I will keep these with me forever. I did not see him as often as I would have liked. His visits were always very special to me and my family.
