in honor of Bernard.

One of our favorite memories of Bernard was a goofy night in Vegas when we all decided to take turns jumping off a chair onto the bed, belly flop style. One at a time we counted down and we would take an epic dive on the bed. Bernard was the last one to make the jump, and of course his was the best. He belly flopped like he meant it, he broke the whole bed! He made a splash to say the least and we all belly laughed for quite a while after. LOL! We love you Bernard. Xoxo

Bernard was in my math class. He was in a program called Club Diego where he had 3 teachers instead of 6. This was his Junior year. I taught him Algebra, but what I remember was that I really got to know him and a few others. He was a kind young man.

Fast forward many years and I got an email from him asking if I wanted to start a 403b with him. I didn't hesitate. I started a new investment with him.

It shocks me that such a kind young man has passed so early. Unfortunately I cannot come to the funeral. Here is my phone number in case the family needs anything. Bob Stout 619-742-5558

Bernard gave me the opportunity to be a guest on his podcast. I will never forget his message of kindness and love. Whether it be helping a friend in need or showing support in any future ventures Bernard was a true friend. He positivity will be missed and his inspiration will live on forever. May you rest easy B!
