He grew up in New Haven, moved to North Branford; and in 2014, he and his wife moved to Henderson, NV.

Bernie was a successful entrepreneur with many interests. His greatest passions were his family, friends and beloved cats. He was a quiet man who found great pleasure in making others feel special and made all our lives better with his unassuming ways, wonderful smile and open heart. Bernie always showed great concern for animals and their welfare. Bernie will be sorely missed by all who knew him, and we look forward to when we will see him again.
