Read MoreI think about Bruce often. He was my best man at my wedding and the best of friends - we did a lot of laughing together. I wish he could have seen how my son turned out - he would have enjoyed that. Miss you always.

A crazy driver - he took me to the coast one-time in what had to be a land speed record - using both lanes and screeching tires in every turn. Scared me to death - and my most enjoyable ride ever! Man had skills!

Kind and generous to a fault. Funny and still the best friend I've ever had.

I miss you very much. With your passing the story about corn nuts and Diane K also died, making a career in politics possible for me again. That will make Bruce smile for sure.

Over time some people's passing fades - not Bruce's. I still remember his antics and it makes me smile - we had a drive to the coast in his Cortina that must of set land speed records - I've never been so scared and thrilled at the same time. He could be impossible - and also gentle and kind. I miss him.

Bruce was always somewhere close during Junior High, High School,church retreats. I remember him singing,"Do You Hear What I Hear" it was breath taking. My condolences to the family . Prayers and Blessings

As most people that knew Bruce well knew that he could sing Johnny Mathis better than even Johnny Mathis could. Every time I hear Chestnuts Roasting By An Open Fire, I think of Bruce a VERY special man that I got to know well while working at Sanderson Safety in our wild but fun years. To a really funny and fun-loving person, see you when I see you my friend.

Bruce was my very best friend from College and in many years after - he was my best man at my Wedding and often was the first familiar face I saw upon returning to Portland Airport from my many Air Force assignments. Although we had drifted apart in the last years he was and will always be a major part of my life - I am very grateful for his gift of many years of humor, fun, spontaneous lunacy and joy he brought to me and my family. My very most heartfelt condolences to his family in this...
