Our condolences to the Tapke family on the death of Bernie. What a great friend that we had the privilege of knowing,our memories of working, camping and having a few beers together over the years will never be forgotten. Bernie was a great man he taught us all about life. He was also instrumental in the organization of UAW Local 1982 at The Ertl Company.
Bernie was elected as the first Vice Presidentof the local holding that position for 12 years, he also serves on many committees and the safety committee. God Bless Bernie’s family, our memories live on!2BTf8

Gary, Sorry to read of your father's passing. He is now in paradise with the Almighty Father where there is no pain, no sorrow, no grief, only love, joy, and happiness. In reading your father's obituary, I can only imagine the outstanding family he and your mother worked to develop and build. If your siblings mirror you in character and ethic, then I believe God will be very pleased, to the point where He will reward you and family greatly. I think of you often and wish you the very best that life has to offer.
God Bless You,
Whit

Sincere condolences to Bernie's family. We enjoyed getting to know Bernie, who visited our South Carolina home at Christmas for a couple years and who spent a couple summer vacations with our family and my mother, Bev Shafer. He was a kind and sweet man. Wishing you peace and comfort during this difficult time.
