Philip Michael Bernard passed away in peace on March 4, 2016 at his home in 
Slidell, LA. 
He was born on July 15, 1946 in Berlin, NH to the late Raymond Bernard and 
Pauline Gleason Bernard

Mike was the loving father of Molly Bernard and Megan B. Kern (Jeremiah). He 
was the proud grandfather of Ruby Kern, who was the light of his life. Mike was 
the brother of Robert Bernard, Joanne Hansen, Richard Bernard and the late 
Barbara Allar. He will be dearly missed by numerous nieces, nephews, cousins 
and friends, including longtime friend, Howard Duckworth.

Philip had an impressive career throughout his life as an hotelier of reputable 
hotels which enabled him to move around the country and establish lifetime 
friendships, though he called south Florida his home for many years. He was 
never one to miss a party and was a natural born host. He loved to collect 
artwork and antiques. Later in life, he moved closer to his daughters. His last 
year of life was spent with the joy of watching his only granddaughter grow. He 
formed an unbreakable relationship with her and his daughters. He will be 
missed by all that knew him and loved him.

A private family service will be held.
