I'm so sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. As an antique dealer he used to frequent often I will miss his discerning eye and charming manner. He was a real gentleman and funny with his dry wit.

Bruce - I considered you a part of the Kaplan family. Always a pleasure to spend time with whenever I came to visit Burt and Anne. You will be missed by many.

Stay safe, Bruce. Carol Frankel Cohen
