I will never forget Bernadine, and how she always had a smile on her face and a positive attitude about life. I considered it a privilege to get to know her, and I admired her wonderful sense of humor. The world has truly lost a special angel. Please know that I am holding Bernadine‘s family in my closest thoughts and prayers. I will never forget her.
Sincerely,
Debra Waters-Roman

My condolences  to Bernadine's loved ones. 

For over seven years, Bernadine worked with us as an actress on an inter-university project designed to train child welfare social workers from APU, USC and CSUF. Bernadine and KeAnna were partners in this project. Bernadine was amazing in her role as the mother. 

The best time spent with Bernadine was getting to know her and experiencing her beautiful, vibrant spirit and her love for the work. On more than one occasion, Bernadine shared with me that this project was meaningful to her, and she was proud to partake in a project designed to develop child welfare workers. Bernadine was so incredibly warm and nurturing. Her joy was contagious, and her smile had a way of lighting up the room. She will be deeply missed.

Rest in peace, Bernadine. May God's glory and love surround you eternally.  

Blessings, 
Virginia Olivas, APU

Bernadine, It's hard to believe you are no longer with us, but you are with us in spirit. I will miss you dearly, you were more than just a mom for acting, you were a second mother to me as well. I appreciate you for being so caring, funny and loving. You were a person that pushed for what was right and always encouraged me to do things that I felt uncomfortable doing. I know you are at peace now and I know you are with your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You taught me so much what it means to pray when you feel defeated and need guidance, I am going to miss so many things about you. Also, to Clint and Frank, I could say stay strong, but that's more than simply a statement, keep the faith and trust that you will begin to feel at ease and she will always remain with you. Sending love and support during this time.
