Grizzly Berry, the Bear: sponsored by Merle and Carol Ann Berry and Family

Have you ever seen a bear with eyeglasses? Meet Grizzly Berry, the inside row bear who can see you just fine thanks to his wire-rimmed spectacles. He is a brown grizzly bear with a tan muzzle and black nose and represents this family of optometrists.

The Berry’s four granddaughters’ names, Annie, Maggie, Molly, and Elsa, are etched into the bear’s fur. In his mouth is a wicker basket containing a ruler and an apple depicting the teachers in the family. The outside of the basket is decorated with both a grouping of straw-“berries”, and the optometric caduceus. The bear also carries pink ballet slippers and an eye chart as well as a block “U” for the family’s Utah heritage.

The Berry’s hope generations of people will enjoy taking a ride on their friendly Grizzly Berry!
