Ziessler, Portland BERNADINE STRIK Bernadine Strik, professor emeritus and berry specialist for OSU Extension Service, died on April 14 at age 60. Strik’s innovative research helped transform the state’s berry industry. As a result of her insights into growing practices, blueberry acreage in Oregon jumped from 1,200 to 15,000 acres during her 34 years at OSU. She received the the International Society for Horticultural Science’s highest honor, the ISHS fellowship. She is survived by her husband, Neil Bell, M.S. ’93, and two daughters, Nicole Bell, ’21, and Shannon Bell.
