    I was Mr Bernard aid for almost 3 years. He was a wonderful and brilliant human being who loves his family very much. He talks about his 3 grandchildren all the time. He adores his 2 sons always saying how lucky he is to have them. He loves his...  more

    Bernie Zaccaro -- funny, smart, hard working, caring, family first. Just like the rest of the Zaccaro family. A great legacy.

    Joseph and I always called Uncle Bernie our "goofy" uncle. Talking about him made my mother smile. I seem to remember that he was always shooting movies with lights that were blinding! In one, he faked feeding a baby (don't know who - sorry!) a...  more

    My favorite food story is every phone call I ever had with the man. He never failed to bring up ice cream or pasta or coffee no matter what the subject at hand was. I miss our short phone calls where he made me laugh and shared such inspiring and crazy...  more

    Love that pic of you behind the camera, Bernie. Pretty handsome guy...with a cool 70's mustache. You wore it well, especially when you cleaned the Woodstock mud off it!

    Uncle Bernie always made me laugh. That was all he wanted to do...bring joy to his nephews and nieces. I’ll always remember “the llama” because it was his signature “made you laugh” move. But my fondest memory of Bernie was as a grownup when he...  more

    Even when Bernie was sick, he always managed to make us laugh. He did a great llama impression!

    I have many thoughts about Uncle Bernie! Here are a few:
    Bernie was my birthday buddy, and I felt so lucky to share that with him. I think, in all our years of October 18ths, I placed the first birthday call exactly once. Hard to beat someone to a first...  more
