Part 7/8:
Though Bert attempted to reconnect with Dina after his divorce from Lonnie Anderson, she had chosen not to respond. She wanted to shield him from the painful realities of her illness, demonstrating that her love for him endured even in silence. After her passing, Burt learned of her death from others, having never had an opportunity to say goodbye. Nevertheless, he found solace in visiting her memorial sites throughout his life, where he continued to communicate with her spirit, as if their connection was still very much alive.
