To my beautiful, kind, gracious and talented mother: Bertiann Fohl Thomas

August 16, 1937 - April 25, 2018

Happy Birthday Mom!

You are very much missed by everyone that you crossed paths with.

If I were able to speak at your memorial I would have remembered that the food was always comforting, the laughs and music were always in the air, and your beloved dogs, Max and Milton were always full of fun and mischief.

But I guess my favorite times with you were staying overnight, waking up in the morning to your coffee and whistling, laying in bed watching the morning news with our outrageous morning hairdoos, and talking about all your friends, many of whom were present at your funeral.

I could go on and on....

But in the end, I want to thank you for your Big Heart and Kind Spirit which will live on in all our hearts forever.

...with Love, your daughter Kathleen Pringle, Family and Friends.

P.S. On her 75th B-Day, her number one son John Pringle arranged to have a star in the night sky named in her honor. The star’s name: “BERTIANN”. Long may it shine.
