We join you in your sadness in Bruce's passing. From the day we moved in to the neighborhood many years ago, Bruce and your family has been nothing but the best of neighbors. We have shared both good times and weathered some bad together. Bruce never hesitated to offer his help or to yell hello or some other unmentionable thing across the fence and field. We will miss that.
Kay, please do not hesitate to call upon us if you need anything.
