Ode to Bernie

It is with sadness that we learn of the retirement of Bernie Vogt as Canadian President of Prudential Real Estate.
Bernie has lots of ties to Waterloo Region. He grew up in the Preston part of Cambridge, attending Preston High School. His parents owned and operated a restaurant for many years on Frederick Street in Kitchener where the Three Kretans Restaurant is now. His first real estate career was as a sales representative in Kitchener with Canada Trust Realty.
He has held his present position with Prudential since 1998 when he sold out his Countrywide franchise operations to Prudential. Prior to that he had been a senior Vice President with Royal Lepage.
He has always been a great supporter of Prudential Grand Valley Realty and attended many of our events. Many of our agents have got to know Bernie well. He will be sadly missed.
We sincerely wish Bernie all the best. We hope that he and Joy enjoy a long and happy retirement.
