I thank God for gracing me the opportunity to experience what you did for the music industry. I grew up with your music and was so impacted by it, I never let go of it. I never will.

Dear Bernie,

The world lost one of the finest people I knew. Without you we had no Parliament and or Funkadelic. Your music was and still is the inspiration for many.

R.I.P. my friend.

My condolences on the passing of Bernie. I am forever grateful for the opportunity to have met him and the joy and honor of introducing him and the Woo Warriors at a show back in the day. He truly was the lead architect for the sound track of my life and the best there ever was and the best there ever will be. Love to you and family, Rich Panse

The group sound was so unique, like a Hanson cake. The loss of Dr. Worrel is like the cake without the flour.

For the Departed:
O God of spirits and of all flesh, Who hast trampled down death and overthrown the Devil, and given life to Thy world, do Thou, the same Lord, give rest to the souls of Thy departed servants in a place of brightness, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, where all sickness, sighing, and sorrow have fled away. Pardon every transgression which they have committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For Thou art a good God and lovest mankind; because there is no man who lives yet does not sin, for Thou only art without sin, Thy righteousness is to all eternity, and Thy word is truth.

For Thou are the Resurrection, the Life, and the Repose of Thy servants who have fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and unto Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, who is from everlasting, and Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever unto ages of ages. Amen.

Love, peace, and prayers for strength, dearest Judie, Dawn, Bassl and family . God be with you all. DD
