Hi Cathy my name is Brian and we may or may not have a reason to be in contact. I found a picture of a Donald Bergman in a resale shop. My wife bought it to use the frame and I just though maybe someone out there wants this memorial picture. I'm also not even sure he is the Late Donald mentioned in this memoir page. I would are last like to see if it is or to rule out so we can find the family that this picture would belong to.

Cathy, Mike just told me about Don and he is hoping to stop at the visitation. He was always, along with you, so nice and we all had such fun together with the FD. He will surely be missed. Again, so sorry for your loss. Paula Milenkovic, Warrenton, MO
