Bertrand Y. AUGER 

Age 85. Born Sept. 20th 1921. Bert passed away
peacefully in his home on Feb. 14th, 2007. He was a
robust and passionate man who lived his life to the
fullest, and on his own terms. A decorated WWII
veteran who flew 35 combat missions as a navigator on
B-17's, his commendations include the Distinguished
Flying Cross, Bronze Star, and Air Medal. As a senior
executive at the 3M Company, he rose to the level of
vice-president. Upon his retirement, he pursued his
love of art, and the pacific northwest. We will miss
him. He is survived by his brother, Edgar Auger, son,
John Auger (wife, Wanda Auger), daughter, Cindy
Lindgren (husband, Steve Lindgren), son, Jim Auger,
and grandchildren, Mike and Eric Lindgren. There will
be a small Memorial Service and Celebration of his
Life to be held at a later date. Please feel free to
send any remembrances to a veterans charity of choice.
