Faye L. Bernhard, 93, of Boyertown and formerly of Perkiomenville, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Friday, March 28th, 2025. She was a daughter of the late Raymond and Pearl (Rothrock) Schmoyer and she was the beloved wife of the late William “Beanie” Bernhard. She was a longtime member of Frieden’s United Church of Christ in Sumneytown where she was a faithful member of the Senior Choir for many years, worked as Sexton along with her husband, Altar Guild member, Search Committee member, and participated in and taught the Adult Sunday School Class.
