Bergen Memorial Site
My Grandfather was an artist, teacher, business owner, architect, veteran and community leader. He’s always been my role model, I use his life as a roadmap to my own.
When he passed in April 2020 at the remarkable age of 95, it was at the peak of the stay home order. I couldn’t go home, or hug my mother, or help plan a funeral. I thought about his many friends, and the parts of grieving we’d all miss - especially the space to share stories and honor his memory.
So I set up this site, which helped, a little. I’m sharing it here because I tell as many people as I can about him, and it is a website built just for that purpose.
