"Bert was a lifelong friend, and he made a huge difference in my life," Meaney said.

In his last will and testament, Bert asked that any contributions in his memory be made to the Bert Hundredmark Scholarship (c/o the Morrisville College Foundation, P.O. BOX 901, Bailey Hall, Morrisville, NY 13408.
