It is with heavy hearts that we join many in our community in mourning Barbara Bernard, a trailblazer in Western Massachusetts broadcasting, a former PeoplesBank Board member (1979–1998) and Honorary Trustee (1998–2024), and a community friend. She sadly passed away on August 29th at the age of 97. Recently inducted into the Massachusetts Broadcasters Association Hall of Fame, Bernard’s legacy of insight, leadership, and community spirit will be deeply missed. In her honor, we will save her seat on our lawn at the Pedlar for the Holyoke St. Patrick's Parade. Rest in peace, Barbara. Your contributions and spirit will never be forgotten.
