She is survived by her husband of 42 years Wayne, daughter Christina and brother Robert Sokol. Bernadette was born February 21, 1952 in Brooklyn, New York to Michael and Mary Sokol. She is preceded in death by her 3 sisters Eunice McMullen, Dorothy Morda and Carol Gibbons. Bernadette worked for Merrill Lynch in the payroll department, in Manhattan, New York. In 1974 she met Wayne Duncan and they wed in 1978. The two enjoyed camping trips and cross country skiing in the Poconos. In 1988 Wayne and Bernadette gave birth to their daughter Christina and moved to Florida. During her 32 years in Florida, Bernadette became an active PTA member and passionate volunteer in each of Christina's schools (John D Floyd Elementary, Powell Middle and Springstead High). During her time at Springstead, Bernadette was a devoted Band Mom to the Marching Eagles, diligently curated the high school newsletter and developed the Scholarship Committee.

Bernadette's smile and laugh will never be forgotten. She will be deeply missed.
