Just got a phone call that Harv's mom passed early this AM. She fought the good battle but God took her.

Wow.

Harv, when you get the time and mind to log in here, I expect you will find a long list of condolences.

I feel for you. I am thinking of you.

I am not going to claim to have advice for you. I have not been there, though I know I will some day.

Know you are loved by your friends, and your family. Time to really know that.

Harv, I am so, very, sorry for your loss. They surely are gone in person, but not in spirit at all. In that form, they are always with you. All the time.

Your friend,

Dug

Harv: My sincerest condolences on both of your losses. I lost my Dad in 1999, but my Mom is still alive. I cannot imagine the pain of losing both of them in one year (compounded by your back)! My thoughts and prayers are with you and the rest of your family. Just remember that your Bertram family is with you no matter what. I know that there is not much that any of the rest of us can do to help right now, but I think I speak for the group when I say that if there is anything that any of us can do to help you out, please do not hesitate to ask. We would be honored! Your friend, Rawleigh

Each of us deals with losses of their parents in different ways, and while all of us here share your grief we can't put into words anything that will heal the wounds you feel. Your feelings are yours, and all we can do is express our sympathies and offer you a lot of shoulders to lean on when you feel the need.

Please just know we are here and thinking of you.. and sending you our own strength as you mourn your loss. Be strong and know we all feel a sadness, as you would feel for us if your loss was ours.

Frank

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to all of you who I consider my extended family. It indeed has been a very rough year.

For anyone that is in the area, and would care to,
the funeral arrangements are as follows....
Sunday morning at 10am at
Parkside Memorial Chapel at
2576 Flatbush Ave, directly across the street from Kings Plaza Mall.

Following Chapel service we will be going directly to the cemetary
and then to my uncle's house in Jericho. I will post more information tomorrow, right now just need to unwind as it has been a long day.

Harv,

Be assured of our best wishes for you in these difficult times, from all parts of the Bertram world. I only know you through your thoughtful posts but I can tell you are a good man and your parents would right now be justifiably proud of you.

My sincere condolences to you.

Really sorry to hear the news Harv. One is difficult enough, let alone both in a short time. Stay strong and take comfort in the amount of time you were able to spend with them... replay those good memories often.
I lost my mom and stepdad within a few months of each other when I was in my early twenties... that was hard. Really wish I would've had more time with em.
