To the family of Abe Bergen, sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a great friend. We all had our chuckles when visiting. He's now resting along side with Mom. Bless them both.

We visited your Mom and Dad at Riverview. It is sad to know that another part of our past has passed away. We first met Abe when he played hockey with the old time Wes' Super Service in Men's league. SO many years ago. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Harold and Val

I remember Uncle Abe and Aunt Marg best on our family Radium trips. Everyone piling in whatever vehicle was available (seatbelts weren’t a thing) to go to the hot pools and I remember picking their vehicle to ride along with Jeanie and Richard. Then some relaxing and perhaps dunking shenanigans in the hot springs and Aunt Marg sometimes in hair curlers :)
Later, each summer when I worked in Medicine Hat we’d get together for breakfast either out or at their home. It was always nice to visit and catch up. Hugs and thinking of you all.

Your family has been through so many losses in the past few years. That is a heavy burden. Many memories of earlier times that make me smile. Take care.

Both of your parents were a delight to be around … The love could be felt just being in the same room.
