BIERNAT, Bruno - 1932 - 2021 Bruno Gottfried Biernat passed away peacefully at his home, on March 28, 2021, at the age of 89.
He was born on January 6, 1932 in Munich, Germany, the eldest of three siblings including his brother, Guido (predeceased) and half-sister, Christa.
Bruno married his soulmate and life partner, Lisa Stadlbauer in Munich, Germany, on July 24, 1953.
They immigrated to Canada in 1957 eventually making their home in Pickering, Ontario. Lisa's passing in 2012 was a tremendous loss to Bruno and one from which he never fully recovered.
