Lyle, Thanks for posting this. Bert was a phenomenal guy and good friind and will be missed. I've posted links to a couple of photos, the first is Bert with his good friend Ron Tremper at the Midwest Herp Symposium in 2005. The second photo is one that Bert took of himself just before he gave a talk at the Minnesota Herp Society in 2002. http://www.tc.umn.edu/~gambl007//Bert_Ron.JPG http://www.bellmuseum.org/herpetology/Photos/BertMHS.jpg Tony

Below is the post by his son to Kingsnake: Bert passed away today at 14:45 central time. He will be cremated tomorrow, Tuesday. There will be a memorial later in the year, but no date has been set yet. It will probably be many weeks or several months from now. Sincerely, Timo Langerwerf, Bert's son.
