In the early 2000's, shortly after Bernie lost his wife, the Tiger-Cats training camp was held at Brock University. They were 2 a day practices. One Sunday, there was no practice. I took Bernie for a drive into Niagara-On-The Lake; he wanted to find the "African-American" Cemetary. While we were driving, I played a c.d. by Celine Dion for him. The very powerful and dynamic duet with Celine Dion and Andrea Bocellii - "The Prayer" came on. Bernie became very emotional by and with the song; he had me play it over several times, all the while with tears streaming down his cheeks, as he cryingly repeated,"Wow, Wow",and thanked me profusely, for allowing him to hear and listen to such a beautiful song, as he said, with fond and pleasant memories of his wife.As for the drive and tour of Niagara-On-The Lake- "Wow!" Knowing him was my pleasure; being in his company was an honour; a gentleman amongst men. Rest peacefully, my friend.
