This was one of Bruce at Christmas. I hope the picture comes through.

Fran and I are shocked and saddened by Bruce’s sudden passing . We expected him to come and stay with us for a week or so in Marquette to do some bird hunting. We used to tease him and ask if he was moving in, because he had so much stuff. He and Fran love to play cribbage to see who would get skunked. In recent years he had been coming up for Christmas, although sometimes the weather wasn’t the best. We will miss him. Our condolences go out to his family and friends.

We are all devastated by the news of Bruce's passing. We were to get together for a 100th. Aldrich Reunion Planning Committee this Spring. He always was an active member of the Aldrich Reunions. He would make his famous fried Fish and Special Sauce every year. Bruce, you'll be sorely missed by all. We love you so much.

Now we could hunt as far as our feet or bycyles would take us. In Jr high, we trapped the Bryant Mill pond for muskrats. Morris and Grace allowed us...
