There are people that we all meet in life that are just quality individuals. Bernie was one of them. I had the pleasure of playing soccer with Bernie in college and later on in club ball. We enjoyed championships together and Bernie was a large part of that. Our college team was honored at the 40th anniversary of our National Championship followed by the induction of the team into the Adelphi University Hall of Fame last year. It was at these events that I was able to reconnect with Bernie and meet his boys. He had not changed and it was very clear how happy he was to be able to see his old mates but also to share these honors with Chrissy and the boys. As i read the condolences here from parents and associates, they all reaffirm what a quality person Bernie truly was. He was a great teammate and clearly a champion on and off the field. Rest in peace..

I seriously can believe this happened. This man was the #1 reason I enjoyed gym in RCK elementary school. He always knew how to turn someones day around, this was due to how cheerful and kind he was. I remember how excited I was to hear I would have him as a gym teacher in elementary. May he rest in peace and god bless his soul.

I had the pleasure of working with Bernie the past 4 years at RCK. Weather you knew him 4 years, or 4 seconds, you just loved him. To watch him with his students was truly amazing. He loved and would do anything for them. He was the kindest man, and ALWAYS had a smile on his face. I use to love hearing him walk down the halls, just whistling away. I can truly say that I will miss him so much, but I am so happy he's not suffering anymore. Fly with the Angels Bernie. I'm so glad to know that you're up there watching over all of us. You will never be forgotten. RIP.
