In addition to his wife, Bernie is survived by two children, Tracy Garron and TJ Garron, along with TJ’s wife, Carrie, all of Hopkinton. He also leaves behind his sister, Penny Taylor of Ashland, and four grandsons, Calvin and Eric Touzjian, and Jake and Nick Garron. He is predeceased by his brother, Kenny Garron.
