Louie, Maryann and family, I am so sorry for your loss, your father was one of the most loving, happy, compassionate man I have ever known. He always had time for a hug and a huge smile. I have many wonderful memories of happy times with the Bernardo's and DeCaterina's as a child growing up. Our parents are all together again. My thoughts are with all of you today and the days to come. Robin Delvecchio,Schreiner
So sorry for your loss, the profession has lost a true craftsman. Tony may be gone but his work will be here forever.

We are so sorry for the loss of your Father, Grandfather, and husband. My Dad, Norman Nelsen, and my sisters have wonderful, fond memories of Tony beautifully building a brick wall, complete with fireplace, and cabinets at our beach place in 1970. We looked forward to his arrival daily, and I was mesmerized at his masterful use of a trowel. I remember how exited he was as he told us he was going to see Tom Jones in concert; he LOVED Tom Jones. It is ironic that in the last few years, we have had Chester Dougherty do various remodel projects at our beach place, and being a friend of Louis, and Tony, Chester reiterated how we had the BEST brick mason, and the wall and chimney have stood the test of time. God Bless all of you.

To Louie and the Bernardo family. Please accept my condolences for your loss. I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Bernardo and Louie on too occasions many years ago with the fond memories of his kind personality , his skills of a master mason and the stories of his early years in New York and the Tacoma area with the many jobs and landmarks he worked on. Anthony will be truly missed by all who have crossed his path. Steve Flintoff
I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences.
When our greatest enemy 'death' strikes, it can bring us overwhelming pain and sorrow.
However, Jehovah God does not leave us to struggle on our own. He promises to sustain us if we throw our burdens on him (Psalm 55:22).
We also have the hope of the resurrection (John 5:28,29). We can look forward to seeing our dead loved ones again.
I hope these scriptural thoughts bring you some comfort and hope.
