The family would like to express their gratitude to the staff of Vitas Hospice at Jefferson Methodist in South Philly who cared for Bruce with infinite kindness and love. Bruce had the most radiant smile and generous and loving heart. Loving connection is eternal. Rest in Peace Bruce, you will always be very much alive in our hearts.
