I met Bruce when I was 15 years old, 40 years ago. I applied for a job at a gas station in Auburn and he was the manager. I learned many skills at my first job and have carried them with me throughout my life. To this day I share stories of my first boss and the many things he taught me about work and life. During that time my life was in turmoil and Bruce took me in and helped get me through a difficult period for me and my family. I wish we didn't lose touch over the years but my family knows how much of an impact he had on my life. God bless. Gary Conroy
