He would run and chase the trick-or-treaters down the street. Bert loved to build things and like his Grandpa Fink, he often tinkered with anything he put his hands on. Sometimes, after taking things apart, he would cuss about having to put it back together. He loved to watch all kinds of sports. Since he was raised in Colorado, his favorites were the Broncos, Nuggets, Avalanche, and the Rockies. Bert was will to give the shirt off his back for just about anyone, friend or foe. Services for Bert will be Monday, March 14, 2016 at 11 AM at the Huerfano Community Bible Church located on 6th and Leon in Walsenburg and a reception will follow at the community Center.
