Bruce Raymond Gilardi

We lost a fine Renaissance man in Bruce: multi-talented, multi-lingual, everything he touched became gold, so to speak. Compassionate, passionate about life, an elegant soul, he left an indelible impression on me, and many others who crossed paths with him. I met Bruce on a plane to Switzerland in '92. So handsome, smart and inspirational. You left this Earth much too soon, but what comforts me is that you were in such a idyllic place in your life. Love, Bettina

A school mate from Cornell NROTC, I extend condolences and celebrate his life of service. Brice was always upbeat, and elevated those around him. Kind and intelligent, inspirational with the humility of a gentleman.Fred Hintermister

Dear Bruce,

It would have been your 56th birthday today! You left too young! Rest in peace, my old friend. And may God continue to comfort and strengthen all your loved ones.

With love, and a heavy heart,
Edna

I've just learned that heaven got this angel back. I knew Bruce when he worked with me at Goldman Sachs in Zürich. Bruce and I shared the common tie of both being Southern California natives. It was always so much fun and LIGHT in his presence. He knew how to spread joy with his smile and his humor. My heart goes out to his family and dear friends. I will remember Bruce with fondness.

You were a force in everything you touched dear Bruce! hope you are traveling well in your new world and exploring great new ventures that will nurture your ever inquisitive mind!
