I remember Dr. Steckler from the SU campus, but he was most important to me as the brother of Joan, my all time favorite teacher. May your family be consoled with many happy memories of the good ness of his life.

Bernie and Joyce welcomed us to Panorama when my husband Roy and I moved here from Illinois. We soon learned how special both of them were, individually and together. Their 70 year partnership (66 years of marriage plus four of courtship) was and is an inspiration indeed. They introduced us to Learning Right Relations, where Bernie's passionate commitment to right the wrongs of the "Doctrine of Discovery" was another inspiration for us. Bernie was such a loving, generous, truly wonderful man. His departure leaves a huge hole, and he is deeply missed.

I met Bernie and Joyce only about four years when my wife Carolyn and I crossed paths with them at Learning Right Relations and learned that we all were residents of Panorama. What a treasured time we have had together in that short time, whether enjoying a production in the Panorama Auditorium, sharing in nearby gardens in the Panorama Pea Patch, or learning of the wisdom and insights of our indigenous neighbors in Learning Right Relations. We are so fortunate to have been blessed by Bernie during our short but precious time together.

I so miss Bernie! His big, genuine smile, sincere interest in his connections, passion for correcting the wrongs done to our Native American neighbors. Throughout his physical challenges, he was courageous and insightful, and boy, could he use his voice to speak his own and others' words in solidarity with the original Americans.
And Joyce, your partnership with that man is truly an inspiration.

Bernie and I have the "same" birthday, January 23rd, and he's the only person I have ever met who knows the song my Grandmother used to sing to us - "Babies in the Woods". His work on the Doctrine of "Discovery"-or rather "Domination", was amazing and fueled our work in Learning Right Relations. He and Joyce brought such generosity and loving energy to OUUC!
I feel so lucky to have them in my life. Joyce, you and Bernie are a treasure. I so loved how he liked to refer to himself as B.S.!
I am so grateful our paths crossed.

I am planting a fragrant mock orange shrub in memory of Bernie, my dear friend from OUUC and the Learning Right Relations Group. I enjoyed working with Bernie as an ally in solidarity with our local Coast Salish Tribes. We were so blessed to experience his insight and passion in this effort.
Warm regards, Elizabeth Rodrick

Bernie Steckler was a great pal to my father, Dr. William A. Guppy, who was a Seattle University psychology professor and administrator for 40 years, in the same era Bernie was there. I remember him from a very early age, as one of Dad's good friends, and I remember his booming laugh and energetic presence, as described in the obituary. My Dad and Bernie, together with other good friends, played poker and went camping and hiking together for decades. I think they were of a certain cadre found at Seattle University in those days: men who had earned advanced degrees and multiple letters after their names, but who remained humble, "ordinary guys." Blessings to the family. -- Joe Guppy

I only met Bernie and Joyce one weekend when I stayed at their house for a JUUstice WA gathering. I had learned of both of them through others in the work Bernie was pursuing regarding the Doctrine of Discovery. I could see his passion, his intent, his gentle and sweet nature. I also felt the bereavement of his fellow activists at his departure.
