EIGHT BELLS … Don Bergman (1/25/31-8/12/23)

Don and Jean Bergman 2020 Lake Michigan Hall of Fame
It’s difficult to say good-bye to a legend who has touched all our hearts in some way. But it’s easy to celebrate the wonderful memories that Don left us with. As a mentor, teacher and friend, Don was a special gentleman we loved sharing time with at events. His laughter signaled a special sound that drew groups to him to hear his stories. But he was equally spell-bound by stories we shared with him. He always made us feel important enough to be listened to and gave us encouragement just when we needed it.
There wasn’t much Don couldn’t or wouldn’t do involving Sunfish Class events and Class business. He was that special kind of member who was happy to help in any way that was needed.
Our hearts go out to Jean and everyone in Don and Jean’s families who joined in song at Don’s bedside during his last moments.
From afar, all of us in the Sunfish Class join in shared memories to honor Don who will sail with us forever in our hearts. CLICK LINK TO STORY BELOW FOR MORE...
