Sunnyvale, Cupertino and Los Altos for more than 65 years, and has a rich
history in the South Bay. If you have stories of these leagues, please contact

 Bob
Bernhardt
Serra Park’s Little League Baseball diamond is
named for Robert (Bob) Owen Bernhardt. For those who had the privilege and
pleasure of interacting with Bob and calling him friend, they knew him as an
intelligent and dedicated member of our community. If you did not know Bob, the
picture above is symbolic of his warm, humorous and positive disposition.
He and his wife, Ellie, were married for almost 5 decades, and made
Sunnyvale their home for 44 of those years. They raised two children; a
daughter Julie, and son Rob, who started playing Little League at Serra Park in
1970, with his father as his coach. Bob continued to volunteer his time in the
Serra program as an umpire and mentor for younger officials until his death in
November of 2004.
Expanding his involvement with Little League, in
1977 Bob became a member of California District 44, which governing 14 leagues
in Sunnyvale and surrounding cities, as a board member. He served for 25 years
as the treasurer, assistant district administrator, tournament scheduler and
publicity director, gathering scores and highlights of Tournament of Champions
and All-Star games and furnishing that information to local newspapers.
Additionally, he was a member of the District’s elite officiating team and
was chosen to umpire the Western Region Softball Tournament.
Bob’s
wider community involvement included being president of the Homestead
Parent-Faculty Association, Fairbrea Swim and SIRS Clubs, as well as
participating as an Elder and Lay Leader at two local churches for more than 30
years. He served his country in the United States Navy, retiring after 20 years
from the Reserves as a Lt. Commander, and worked for 38 years in the aerospace
industry with Philco/Ford/Loral.
The naming of the baseball diamond was
a way of paying respect and saying Thank You to Bob for his 34 years of
selfless service to Serra Little League. It highlights what one individual can
achieve as a volunteer. Moreover, Bob would want his recognition to inspire all
of us to greater giving and participation throughout our
community.
