For the family of Bruce, my heart aches for the loss of one of your own and I hope and pray that your pain heals as you remember him. In remembering him, I pray and hope that the family comes together for the sake of his young, smart, and brilliant son, Keelson. This boy is one of the most brightest and polite boys I have met. Keelson your father still is with you, stay strong and just know that even though he is not here physically, he remains in your heart and you can still talk to him. He will always be by your side. To Cassandra, I am here for you also. Please feel free to contact me anytime. You are a dear friend. Matt - Austin, Texas
