December 10, 1926 — March 17, 2017
Bernard Berger, age 90, passed away on March 17, 2017, after a full life. Beloved husband to Betty Berger, father to Michael Berger (Karen), Jay Berger (Gina) and Diana Pence (Ron), grandfather to Jordan Berger, Jesse Berger, Allison Berger, Alyssa Linder, Logan Pence, Austin Pence, Ben Linder, Jobi Berger and great grandfather to Joaquin Quillin, Lillian Pence and Valencia Quillin, Bernard was known for his love of cigars, a good card game and the occasional trip to the "boat" to place a wager. He enjoyed traveling with his wife and friends and cherished all moments with his family. Bernard captivated all who knew him with stories of his travels, life experiences, humor and kindness.
A graduate of Shortridge High School, Bernard was the center and drop kick punter of an undefeated high school football team. He attended Indiana University on a football scholarship but left to join the Army-Air Corp during WWII. He and Betty Berger, Bernard's wife of fifty-nine years, later established B&B Liquors located at 22nd and Central where they operated this small business for fifty years.
