Bernard so sorry for your loss. I rarely get to visit Colonial Beach now that I’m in FL. but when back home I remember the good old days and how your Dad and I would talk at the Hardware store. I always thought how kind your dad and mom we’re to me growing up. I wasn’t the best kid growing up but I think your Mom and Dad knew I really was a good kid and I appreciate them even now they are in Heaven. May you and your family have great Peace during this time.

Bernie, I was saddened to learn of your mom’s passing…saw her obituary in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star this past week. I remember your mom (and dad) from your Marine Corps’ retirement ceremony in Colonial Beach several years’ ago…very nice people. Please accept our deepest and heartfelt condolences and take comfort in knowing that your mom lived a good long life. We will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
