Allan Berdette Reynolds

Allan Berdette Reynolds, known as A. Bert Reynolds, was born Feb. 17, 1925.  Raised in Wetaskiwin, he served time in the RCAF. After returning home safely, he decided to explore Europe and Mexico.  Bert then returned to his home in Wetaskiwin as an Education teacher and became the author of the publication “Siding 16", Vol. 1 & 2, which depicted the history of the Wetaskiwin area. Marrying Mardell Genevieve Peterson, the newlyweds soon decided to move to British Columbia to explore a new region and teach special needs children in the Kelowna Mission area school district.  Not long after did Bert succumb to his destiny, contributing his time to writing and the necessity of philanthropy. He accomplished his mission.   Amen and Thank you dear Bert!
