I met Bruce at Hoosac school. We had some good times together. I am sorry for your loss. Very sad news so young. May God comfort you and his children at this time.

I am sorry that we couldn't stay after the service. I am also sorry that I wasn't better prepared to speak at the service to Bruce's kind soul. He always had a wonderful laugh and ready smile. He brought great joy to our small family and he took great joy from his own family. As far as I could tell his entire world revolved around Joann, Robbie, and Jesselen. Until my own funeral I will always remember him fondly.
