Oh, Bruce, I loved our talks about faith, church, religion, current events, and personal matters. I have a special love for you, and am greatly saddened by this news. I will be hopeful, because the pain in this world is nothing compared to what is to come; that is eternity with our Creator and I am comforted that you are in heaven, that place that you often talked about, singing with the angels. May your family be blessed and given wisdom in this time. God bless you and everyone.

Bruce was our son-in-law and much loved by us. Humanly, we hate to see him leave us but spiritually, we know Bruce avidly believed in and lived for our God and His Son, Jesus. God's timing is perfect so Bruce has left the pain of this world and his body and is no doubt rejoicing right now! Praying for the family's pain. We love you all.
