Bert had a boisterous voice and loved to make people laugh and always had a smile or kind words for others. Bert was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served faithfully in many different church callings during his life with his last being as an assistant in the ward High Priests Group. He loved the gospel and taught all ages how to be a good example through being kind caring and loving. He is now in Heaven with the love of his life, Tina and family that has passed before. A special thanks to the church members for the love they showed dad over the years.
Bert loved traveling and made every trip memorable and exciting for everyone. It was always an adventure from the space needle in Seattle to sites in New York, Vegas, Jackson Hole, Alaska, Holland and more… So many great times and memories. His passion was restoring and showing off his antique cars. He took many road-trips with his best friend Bob to purchase cars and parts. During one of these trips, Bert insisted the Saint Louis Gateway Arches crossed the Mississippi River. He was so insistent that Bob drove three hundred miles out of their way so he could prove dad was mistaken.
Dad believed a handshake was his word and would never go back on a handshake. It was code of honor that the work would be performed as agreed verbally and the handshake sealed the deal. It served him well throughout his lifetime.
Bert was preceded in death by his parents, his wife Tina Visser, daughter Debra and his brothers John and Ted Visser; his sisters Hellen Shaw, Marion Hill and Leona Inglekey. He is survived by his son, Bert R Visser and daughters Jane Johnson, Johanna Bailey-Graham (husband Bill Graham) Jackie Ririe and Wendy Snounou (husband Sam Snounou). Bert was loved by twelve grandchildren and twelve great-grandchildren.
Interment at Roy City Cemetery.
