Sad News from Bernie and Shirley
Received a message today from Bernie that their son passed away last night. He left a wife and four children.

Bernie and Shirley had their pac blue SSR and their 40 Cadillac at the Peach City Beach Cruise two weeks ago. They were fortunate enough to have their entire family with them in Penticton for the Beach Cruise weekend.

Their son had done the paint work on the award winning Caddy.

Our condolences to Bernie and Shirley. We wish them strength and courage at a very difficult time.

A photo of the Cadillac and the 2008 Beach Cruise t shirt to remember the joyful times and the talent.

Received further information from Bernie tonight.
