Dearly loved sisters & partners in crime, Katheleen “Kathy” Harnadek (late Emil) and Goldena “Dena” Thomas.

A lifetime of love was showered by my 5 children, Stacy Lambier, Billy Noade, Colleen & husband Brian Shelley, Stephanie & husband Roland Miler, Christopher Spinks. God sent 17 Angels to light up my life; Chad (Sheraine), Craig (Kenny), Cody (Jessica) & Chase (Gregg) Lambier; Darryl Noade (Danielle) & Lana Skinner; Breanne, Brittni & Brett Shelley; Taylor, Tristan & Teigan Gillen, Auriana & Izzadora Miler; Kayla, Broderick & Halle Spinks. Proud & devoted Gigi of Liam Shelley, Théodore Sylvestre & Harper Noade. My life was enriched by my awesome God Children, Nieces & Nephews - too many to name but not too many to love deeply. I met many, many wonderful people along the road of life, from Windsor to Las Vegas & back to Essex. Friendships were formed while working at Cummins Diesel, Regal Tool & Mold and Federated Customs Brokers to name a few. I thank each & every person who took time to train & assist me and befriended me. My 3 favourite charities: Salvation Army Essex Community Church, the Essex Area Foodbank and St. Paul’s Anglican Church. In lieu of flowers, please do a good deed! These were mom’s words. We feel it would be fitting should you choose some act of kindness in Mom’s memory – or just bring a smile to someone’s face. That would please and delight her. Thank you. Bernice is resting at the Kennedy Funeral Home Ltd. (519-776-7378) 128 Talbot St. North, Essex on Wednesday from 2-5 and 7-9 p.m. The family requests that masks be warn during the visitation and funeral.
