Bertha loved her family and always wanted the best for them. She guided, nurtured, and helped wherever she could. She put others before herself, had a smile and kind comment for everyone, and had a fantastic sense of humor. She was the “unofficial family historian “ who knew everybody’s birthdays and anniversaries and went out of her way to make them feel special on those days and every other day. We will miss her terribly, but are glad she is now reunited with her beloved husband in heaven.
