He brought joy when I would go visit him and my Aunt Merci. I enjoyed being around both of them and enjoyed especially watching the deer in the backyard at their home in Greenwood. His memory will live on in each one of my cousins.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020196701240327546.post-24999554440084185432008-01-26T00:08:00.000-08:002008-01-26T00:08:00.000-08:00Thinking about you all tonight here in P'ton.

You didn't have to know them well for them to make an impact on you. You could see they loved each other, their family and their God and somehow that love touched all of us. They inspired us to want to better people, to be the kind of people they were. <BR/>ccabriAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020196701240327546.post-66906719818825994232008-01-11T18:15:00.000-08:002008-01-11T18:15:00.000-08:00Dear Mooki, Stephen, Toby, & Yoni, I'm sorry to he...Dear Mooki, Stephen, Toby, & Yoni, <BR/>I'm sorry to hear of Bernard's passing.

Merci & I worked together at the Council on Aging. During that time, a Meals on Wheels kitchen was built and named in honor of Merci.<BR/>I'll never forget the day the sign was placed over the facility - bearing the name of "Mercedes A. Pannone Nutrition Center" - Bernie drove into the parking lot - looked up at the building & the honor to his wife & his eyes filled with tears. Bernie was crazy about Merci - and I loved to watch them together. Bernie was what we call a "sweetie pie" in the South. He was kind, gentle, caring and very much a gentleman. During an important time in my life, Bernie was a father figure to me. I'll never forget his encouragement and kindness. I know that Stephen, Anna and the other Pannone sons are very fortunate to have Bernie as their dad. Please know that friends in Greenwood, SC are praying for your loss - as it is also a loss for us.<BR/><BR/>Kathy DublinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020196701240327546.post-37971770660860409792008-01-08T14:24:00.000-08:002008-01-08T14:24:00.000-08:00At CUA, Bernie fought at 147 lb.; I went in at 17...At CUA, Bernie fought at 147 lb.; I went in at 178. In the locker room as we waited our turns in the ring, we strategised our oponents and warmed each other up sparring. We had a great year together getting to know each other. I saw Bernie and Merci about 18 months ago in Atlanta. My heart was heavy as I watched the courage of two beautiful people as they faced their trials. We don't know why God chooses His good children on earth to carry the heavy burdens -- perhaps he uses them to show us all our good fortune. I know now a deep sorrow for the Pannone's but I know also Bernie, Merci and all the good times the Pannone shared will give the strength needed to understand God's will.<BR/><BR/> joe della rattaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020196701240327546.post-75766632835374582942008-01-08T10:14:00.000-08:002008-01-08T10:14:00.000-08:00I am so sorry to hear of your loss.I am praying fo...I am so sorry to hear of your loss.<BR/>I am praying for your family at this time.<BR/>Blessings to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020196701240327546.post-58503132729370767782008-01-07T07:25:00.000-08:002008-01-07T07:25:00.000-08:00It is wonderful to have had someone so special.
