Bruce was wonderful man. In the short time that I got to know him and his family, I came to enjoy his humor and his kindness and I´m forever grateful to have known him.

Mr. Dutton was my history teacher for several courses in high school, he inspired me to be a social studies teacher myself! I still have fond memories of him teaching us Robert´s Rules of Order and how to apply them! I still get angry to this day when I don´t see them followed in town meetings! He taught all of us to think for ourselves, even when it was difficult and he´s always remained my mentor. I´m so sad to hear of his passing. His teachings still move forward!

I have so many fond memories of Bruce from about 60 years ago!!! What a warm and engaging man he was. I also remember him being teased for many years about his "allergic" reaction to a strawberry milkshake after spending the day with my dad and Charlie:) My love to all of you. Pat

Nancy and children, I was so sorry to hear of Bruce´s passing. He was an incredible person and I remember how much my Dad enjoyed their discussions. They were always lively! Sending much love and prayers to the loveliest neighbors ever! Lou (Shanahan) Lunderville.

Dear Rebecca, Randall, Nancy and Family, I´m so sorry to hear of Bruce´s passing. I have many fond memories of playing in your yard and him teaching us so many things including but not limited to how to shift a truck´s gears, tree names, sports tips and stafford history. As I got older and was visiting my folks I always appreciated his dry wit when he stopped by for coffee. I´m glad we were neighbors growing up. Take good care, Mia
