Berton was predeceased by his beloved wife, Doris of 59 years, father George Trowbridge, mother Celia Eileen (Myers) Trowbridge, brothers Larry Trowbridge and Dale Trowbridge and cherished daughter Carolee Ann.
Dad will be greatly missed by his sons Richard (Lori) Trowbridge and Raymond Trowbridge and daughter Catherine. Grandsons Todd, Travis and Tyler and Matthew (Emma) and Michael (Jade) and great granddaughter Abigail, brother Wayne Trowbridge and sister Linda Maitland.
