Bernie grew up in Fontana and spent the last 20 years in Riverside with his girlfriend Virginia Marquez who he considered his “rock” and wife. He free lanced in construction, and most of his knowledge and wisdom was self taught. Bernie’s hard work and ethics served him well in his line of work, as he was always recognized by being promoted to supervisor. Bernie had a talent for a listening ear and words of wisdom. He was always willing to help anyone in need. He lived a simple existence in his own way, and kept to himself. He enjoyed working on classic cars, but mostly loved to cruise in them.
