Dear Nolan cousins, I am so sorry for the loss of our dear Aunt Bern. She was always the rock of the family and I will always remember her wonderful Christmas extravaganzas! Aunt Bern stood firmly on the ground with her steady and solid manner. I felt I could always count on her being there and managing anyone’s storms with dignity and grace. She will be missed but boy did she leave solid footsteps behind her! I send you all hugs and love from California and I will see you all soon for Ashley’s wedding!! Love Laureen
