George Vallance wrote a sympathy message

“Echoing Brian’s comments, Bernice was the ‘mother hen’ watching over our time in the Stephenville Canadian Tire. She helped our family in so many ways, almost instantly becoming a trusted friend, confidant, and mentor. We poached her recipes for local cuisine, introducing our kids to the joys of ‘bottled moose’. Unimpeachable character and a great role model.”
