Bernice was truly a lady and very much an inspiration to me as a member of the Alliance of the Chicago Dental Society. We had some wonderful times at Conference and I have a very special memory of spending a glorious time with her at the Japanese Gardens at the Botanic Gardens. It was so peaceful and beautiful and she talked so lovingly of her family. She will be missed, but her legacy lives on. My husband Alan and I wish the family our sincerest sympathy on the loss of such a special lady. She really was a "Golden Girl."
