Bernetta you will always be remembered because you had a son you let me raise. I know you had it rough in life but you always seem to pull through with a smile and a sense of humor. I will always treasure the visits we had and I am sure going to miss seeing you around. For the rest of my life my dear Bernetta I promise I will continue to take care of Carlus and always guide him. And some day when Brittany returns to me I will tell her amazing life stories about the real Bernetta. Rest now my friend and mother of my child.
