Sincere condolences on Bernie´s passing as it is truly the end of an era. I have know Bernie since 1968 when I first joined the hawera golf club and have never forgotten the assistance he gave a young kid just starting out at golf. He has certainly been a constant over the years and contributed greatly to the hawera golf club. He will be sorely missed
