My deepest condolences to Berniece's entire family. Berniece was such good and loving friend to my sister Polly (Barbara Donald). They were great Bingo partners, always looking out for each other. I appreciate the help given to me by Berniece (Paula and Aaliyah) whenever Polly was in need. RIH Berniece.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. I will miss the times with Bernice coming to her house to roll her hair, because it was much more than that. We shared many great laughs and we always talked about how much this world has changed. I'm going to miss you. Rest in Peace.
