Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. I am deeply saddened by the passing of my uncle. He was always a happy and loving man. He treated everyone with kindness. My heart is broken knowing I did not get a chance to say goodbye. I am comforted knowing he is with my grandparents now and he is no longer hurting. I love and miss you Uncle Ricky.

  2. So sorry to hear about Rick’s passing. Sending thoughts and prayers to everyone in the Bernola family. May his memory be eternal.

  3. This was so unexpected. My heat broke when I heard the news. You will be greatly missed but know you are at peace. I hate I didn’t get to say goodbye. I love and miss you, Uncle Ricky.

  4. To the Bernola family,
    My heart is so very torn, I’m so very sad that he left so unexpectedly, he was my best friend, he was always so happy and had an awesome sense of humor, big as a bear but gentle as a butterfly, I will miss him so so much, but on the other hand, I know that he is free of pain now and is at peace, God Bless You Rick, Fly High My Friend, til we meet again, R.I.P.
