Wendy and I are truly saddened to hear of Bruce's passing. He was a wonderful guy and I was blessed to have known him and been part of his extended family for a while. I pray you all can find comfort and peace of mind during this time. Bruce's passing leaves a gap but I know you feel the loss most of all. God Bless.
