Bernice Fabian Obituary
Bernice G. Fabian, 78, passed peacefully surrounded by her family.
Born in Woodstock Valley to Peter and Mary (Anthony) Galenski. Bernie attended Woodstock Academy.   This is where she met the love of her life, Alexander F. Fabian Jr.  After graduating she attended the University of Connecticut for horticulture and began work as a florist.
Bernie was a devoted wife, mother and gram. She was an avid gardener and lined her flower bed with rocks collected from her many travels with AL.  Bernie also loved to craft, making countless ornaments, scarves and hats.



She is survived by her daughter Holly Schmitz; daughter in law Connie Fabian; grandchildren Peter, Melody, Aaron, Leah, Ty Fabian and Mary Schmitz. Great grandchildren Caleb, Kai, Emi Joy, Elliot, Elena and Cadance. A brother Donald Galenski and his wife Joan.

Bernie is predeceased by her husband Al; her son Douglas, her parents and sister Joan Winslow.

In accordance with Bernie's wishes, there will be no calling hours or memorial service. She will be laid to rest in a private ceremony for family during the summer, when the flowers are in bloom.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in memory of Bernie or "Bern" to the Mansfield Center for Nursing & Rehabilitation's Recreation Department, 100 Warren Circle, Mansfield CT 06228.

The family would like to thank the staff for the care and love given to her.
