Bernard truly loved his family and friends. Everyone that knew him was well aware that he was an ambitious, dedicated, hardworking person who loved people and never met a stranger. On June 6, 2012, Bernard departed this earthly life and entered into eternal rest. He was preceded in death by his father, Roger Williams.

My sincerest condolences to your family. May you gain comfort and strength by knowing that God cares and has already made provisions to restore loved one. The Bible book of John 5:28,29 assures us that:The hour is coming when all those in the memorial tombs will hear Jesus voice and come out.. This sure promise will take place here on earth under God's Kingdom that we are praying for at Matthew 6:9. As you draw closer to God in prayer he will draw close to you. James 4:8 May you put your faith in this sure and only hope. I hope and pray that this will encourage and comfort your family.

Sheila
