In Memoriam: Bernice McCann
May her memory be a blessing.
Bernice McCann was a brilliant, loving, generous, talented, and caring volunteer, and a beloved part of Mariandale’s family. Bernice passed away on November 18, 2020. We pray for and hold her large and loving family close.
Our gratitude for her love for the earth, of justice, and for the Center at Mariandale knows no bounds. Her memory is a part of our hearts, and of the land she tended to with such devotion and hard work.
