Rob Bernardo: New York Times Obituary

Lance Paavola, 16 Aug 1992


Most of you don't know me, since I haven't been on the Net long and have only posted here once or twice.

Rob Bernardo was a longtime and special friend. We met in a CR group in 1972 and together helped form The Velvet Hammer, a gay men's collective house in Ithaca in 1973-74.

...

I'm finding it's still difficult to write a eulogy for Rob. So for now I'm just posting the obituary that appeared in Saturday's and Sunday's New York Times:

BERNARDO--Robert, on August 13, 1992, at his home in Concord, CA. Devoted son of Betty and the late Jack. Beloved brother of Claire. Good neighbor and loving friend. Service Monday, August 17th, 9:30 AM, Temple Emanuel, Hillside Ave., New Hyde Park, NY.

Goodbye, loving friend.
