Not sure what to say?

I am sorry I lost touch. I am sorry this is so late. But it shows how you touched my life. I will never forget you and your family´s friendship when I was in Portland. He many conversations memories of Iran and your years three. Always a gentle soul and always a consummate being.

I have very fond memories of the Huntwork family from when we were neighbors in Ahwaz, Iran! Laurie Huntwork was my friend and I loved spending time at the family house, being exposed to a radical inclusivity that was so inspiring. Sending best wishes to all of Bruce's survivors holding his memory.

I met his wife, Billie Ann,
when she was 16 and I was 18,
then later she married Brue and
they were off doing Missionary
work. Through the years I have
kept track of them via the
internet. So now, on this check,
I find Bruce's Obituary.
Billie, now Ann, must be
devastated but strong and
at peace, knowing he
is in Good Hands!

Much love and
many blessings,

Laurie, Karen, Dawn, Tim, Chris and Colleen, I just want you to know I am thinking of each one of you. Your dad was always so sweet and kind to me and I have such wonderful memories of the time I spent at your home. Sending love and peace to you all.

Bruce and Ann touched a multitude of lives. Their giving nature, witness for peace, and work for equality were truly lights in the darkness. I think of Bruce with such joy. Wishing all the family peace at this time of great loss.

Condolences to the Huntwork and Peace House families. I first met Bruce through the Peace Song Circle,held at the Peace House from
the mid to late 80s. Glad to have attended the memorial gathering on July 7.
