d. January 10, 2017

Bernadette L. “Bernie” Stephens, age 89, of Austin, died Tuesday, January 10, 2017 at Mayo Clinic Health System-Austin. Bernie was born October 10, 1927 in the Township of McPherson, County of Blue Earth, Minnesota to Grant and Margaret Davis. She grew up and attended school in Waseca, Minnesota. Bernie loved and devoted her life to her parents, and five children: Bruce (Mary) Iverson, Barbara (Chet) Gerhart, Mary (Tom) Regenscheid, Michael (Amy) Stephens, Michelle Williams (Edward Young). Her labor of love was to care for both of her parents in her home until they passed. Bernie was a member of Queen of Angels Catholic Church. She enjoyed archery and gardening in her younger years, reading, caring for animals, watching the Vikings (but, only when they were not losing), mysteries and game shows, and of course would not miss Judge Judy’s verdict for any reason. Survivors include four of her five children; 22 grandchildren; 37 great grandchildren; five great great grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her parents; son, Michael Stephens; brother, Kenneth Davis; sister, Delores Marreel.
