Bernie Lee was a bit of a legend around these parts. He will be missed for his sharp tongue, quick wit, and humour. I really enjoyed listening to him sing and perform years ago at the Commercial Hotel. Bernie was onstage during the “Golden years of live music” in Nanaimo. He had a huge heart, and was often generous to a fault. There is no rant like a Bernie rant. I am sure he is telling stories, singing songs and debating all comers with intelligence. I am truly sorry for the loss of Bernie Lee.
I have known Bernie for quite a few years and was very sad to here of his passing, I know Buddy will miss him as Bernie loved him so much .
So sad hear this, I am so sorry for your loss. I had not seen Bernie since our days at Public School.
RIP BROTHER 🙏 MY Friend miss u
Bernie was a sweet thoughtful soul
Right before Bernie died he came and saw me in the hospital
I just had cancer surgery I was very weak
He talked a friend ( Dave Pittet) into driving him from his his town to ours he spent his last 10$ to buy me a cozy blanket and a card. He came to see me because he was worried I wasn’t doing well … I knew Bernie was sick on drugs and even though he was dealing with his own horrible problems he made a huge effort to let me know he cared.
I knew him for a long time he wasn’t really in my life anymore but he had a very thoughtful kind and gentle side
He’d give his shirt off his back and obviously his last 10$ to help someone or even a helpless animal.
I am
A Jehovah’s Witness and I feel I will see Bernie again when this chaotic world is fixed and there is a great resurrection according to Revelation 21:3,4 and John 5:28,29
Gone will be death pain suffering and drugs but humans will build a clean world … ( see jw.org if you want to know more)
Bernie was a kind person just know he is missed by me
