Not sure what to say?

Dear Anna Marie....I woke up last night for some reason thinking about you and Bruce from our days as friends/neighbors across the street in Anaheim Hills. Your kids hung out a lot with our kids Dave & Rob. You were always so kind to the kids/we all had fun times. Just looked up Bruce, and just now discovering his passing. Anna Marie, I am so sorry....do hope you all are ok, and sending good thoughts your way.

I grew up next door to boo like David steel,bruce and i would stand at opposite ends of his dad's garden and toss dirt clouds at each other. Bad mistake on my part. That guy could hit me in the head from 100 feet every time. At age 6 or so we hung a basket on the side of a old shed of ours and learned to throw a baseball into it. Even at that age he could hit it every time. I truly miss those days of sand lot ball with all the neighborhood kids on rd 56.

This stinks! I'm thinking of my Mt Lebanon boyhood and how much I loved this guy. Gone too soon...

Your passing saddens me, yet gives me time to reflect on the fond memories of time spent with you over the last few years. You have made a lasting impact on me. I will truly miss our conversations. My sincerest condolences to your family.

I was sorry to hear of the passing of Bruce. God bless him and his family in their time of grief.

Rest in Peace Bruce Kison. We send our deepest sympathy to the Kison Family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My condolences to the entire family ,I was a huge Pirate fan and remember the great World series win and him being flown by helicopter and police escort to his wedding and I also went to Penn Hills H.S. with Anna Marie!
