     Robert E. Bernards, 87, a Corvallis resident for eight years, died

     Born Jan. 11, 1919, on the Bernards Farm near Yamhill, he was the second

McMinnville. “Bob” and “Pat” raised five children together while living in the

The Dalles in 1964, where they resided until 1996. 
     He was a farmer for the majority of his life and worked as a custodian 
for the public school district while living in The Dalles. He served in World 
War II as a flight engineer in the Army Air Force in Roswell, N.M., and was 
decorated for his service. 
     He is survived by his wife of 49 years, Patricia Bernards, Corvallis; son 
Keith Bernards, Vancouver, Wash.; daughter and son-in-law Frances Bernards and 
John Hultquist, Salt Lake City, Utah; daughter and son-in-law Ellen Bernards-
