To: Mrs. Leona and all of my cousins,
I pray that God allows all of us to remember Bruce's smile and his welcoming spirit. Everytime I would see him at family events, he would always make sure we addressed each other with a big hug. As long as we have memories, we will have Bruce around. He definitely will be missed! With love, Cousin Shantel but better known to Bruce as "Dookie".
