Someone posted his contact info a few years ago when he had a health issue. I sent him a card with well wishes and a few of my memories of him when he was active. He sent me a hand written Christmas card and I still have it. I understand he sent a Christmas card to everyone that contacted him. I wish I could have met him because he seemed like a great guy. RIP Bernie.

He broke the wheels studs at the gators 1976 was at the head of the lanes and saw it never forgot it.
