Bernard Bontz -- my Great Uncle. I called him 'Pa' ---
My mother was Margaret Bernice Cook
My mother & I lived with him & Bob (your grandfather, I think) when I was a child. He took care of my mother when I was born & we all stayed together for several years. I remember George & his brother? when we were children.
I have one photo of Bernard. (& also one of Marie Bontz) I remember him dearly. Email me if you would like a print.
Carol, (Carolyn Marie Cook)
ps- I found that Margaret Eplers parents came to Galveston, Tx from Switzerland.
