Hello to my family, I met Bernice one time when I came to Alabama to a funeral service of a family member. Bernice was my first cousin, my father Clyde was her dad brother. So in other words her dad was my uncle. My daddy and her dad looked just alike. My heart is heavy for Bernice's immediate family. I will be reaching out to you all. My name is Theresa Phillips (586)9141251 and to let you know that you have a huge family in Michigan. Our condolence and prayers are going up for you all. May the God of peace keep your heart.
Words can not express your loss. I know if you could've stayed here longer you would've for your sons, grandson, and tge rest of your family. You will truly be missed and forever loved. Praying for your awesome sons today as they lay you to rest. I know they will continue to make you proud. I could always count on you to look out for me and my kids and i didn't mind returning the favor for you and Jaylen. We will miss you and I love you forever. R.I.H Ms. Bernice until we meet again ππ!
