Anthony Joseph Bernhardt

On Oct. 20, 2013 Anthony snored his last about noon. He was 55 years with one son, Brandon who is 33 years old.

Anthony was born Jan. 23, 1958 in Haines, Alaska to Lorene and Robert Bernhardt, his mother was a school teacher and his father was a truck driver for first oil pipeline (Alaska, of course).

He had two other brothers; Steven who preceded him in death, and David who lives and works in Hawaii.

As a child he was a sweetheart and a very polite youngster. He was skilled in culinary arts, an avid fisherman, loved gardening, and peeling cascara for money. At the Hyatt Hotel, where he worked as a cook, he served Bill Gates and shook his hand, which he was proud to announce.

Since his father died 1 day before Anthony became 1 year, he had no father figure in his life; but now he’s in a better place with no pain in which we are thankful and ready to greet us when we arrive.

You can view his beautiful urn in a few days at 6135 Kirsop Rd SW on Kirsop Extension Road, which you drive down and will reach an A-frame pump house. I live in a double wide mobile home.

Also, his photo book, that he called his laughing book is there.
