James and I are sorry to hear about the passing of Berneice. She was a cousin of my husband (James).
We weren't able to come for the celebrating of your wife, mother and grandmother because i had to have a test done. She was a very dear cousin to us. She and I would talk and share family history in the past.
May the lord be with you now and in the days ahead.
Helen and James

Berneice was a kind person with a beautiful heart. She was a best friend to my mom. She was a true friend. People like her are very rare and very precious. I am grateful for the love and kindness and friendship she showed toward my mom over the past many years. She will be greatly missed. Prayers for comfort and peace for her family.
