Not sure what to say?

Meet Bruce about three years ago for the first time and what a pleasure to meet him. But I always felt I knew him for many years from mutual friends who told me funny and wonderful stories about him. Bruce's personality will truly be missed by many and my sincere
condolences to all his friends and family.

Bruce's friendship was a gift and one that will be greatly missed.... Years ago he shared an anthology of home movies that his family had recorded over the 20th Century. The clip that stuck in my memory the most was of Bruce playing football in his backyard in El Paso at the age of twelve. He had a deep appreciation for his friends and loved his family immeasurably. I will miss the music and the spelling, the dirt roads and the sailing.

I just saw the obituary and I was a friend of Bruce's many years ago. We had just re-connected on Facebook! I'm so sorry for your loss.

I have thought a lot about Bruce since I heard of his passing... my heart goes out to his whole family - I know you are missing him very much.

I only met Bruce a few times but knew his family and my heart is going out to them right now... especially his kids and grandkids. He will be missed by many...

Wishing all of Bruce's family and loved ones comfort.

My heart goes out to the entire Barnard family. I really loved my time with Bruce. He was warm, personable, and really funny. Please know I'm thinking of him and Cuatro, Frannie, Mary O, and all of the other members of this dear family. Love from Bhutan, Betsy Gaines Quammen
