I never got to meet Bernice, even though she was a Colorado resident from 1947 to last year. Bernice was born on January 19, 1920 in Michigan. She came to Denver to work for the Department of Interior, where she was employed until retirement in 1980.

Bernice moved to Boulder in the 1950s. She was a member of her local church and the American Business Women’s Asoociation. She played the piano, read, gardened and spent time with her friends.

Bernice also was one of those quiet Democrats. Today, the executor of her estate arrived with a check for $5,000 made out to the Colorado Democratic Party. So we thank this good Democrat for remembering us. She becomes a posthumous member of the Chair’s Council. Thank you to Bernice for her gift. May she rest in peace.
