We will always hold very special memories when Bruce and Ellen visited our Blanchester Ohio farm. Our cats, dog and horses never lacked for attention or affection from Bruce. With great memories from Renaissance and wine festivals to countless food ventures I hope you know Bruce touched our lives in the most joyful ways. Our deepest sympathies to the Bohachek family, Ellen and friends.
