Bruce Harvey Furness, 75, originally from "God's Country" - Minot, North Dakota, passed away December 29, 2023 at his home in Eagan, Minnesota, surrounded by his incredible family. Bruce leaves his loving wife, Delores "Dee" Furness (Grouws); four children: Joan (Brian) Banick, Dawn (Kevin) Koski, Scott (Stacy) Furness, Jodi (Eric) Lindskog; ten wonderful grandchildren; and one beautiful great-grandchild.
Nothing brought Bruce more joy than being with his family. His younger brothers, Bob (Carol) Furness, Greg (Collette) Furness, and Don (Nancy) Furness as well as Dee's brothers provided a great group of nieces and nephews to make sure that any family gathering was bursting with love...and a healthy amount of chaos. In addition to those born or married into his circle, Bruce was blessed with friends from all his stops along the way - friends and colleagues from Minot, Moorhead, and Eagan meant the world to Bruce and continue to give Dee comfort. Bruce was preceded in death by his parents, Harvey and Joan Furness.
Services will be held at Washburn-McReavy in Edina, MN on January 7, 2024. Visitation begins at 10am with a memorial service at 11am and a luncheon to follow. In lieu of flowers, Bruce and Dee would prefer a donation to a charity of your choosing.
