Bruce Tate Jr.

I taught with Bruce while he did his student teaching at Echo Park Elementary. I just saw Bruce's name printed in Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church's newsletter. I am so sorry to hear that he passed away. I know that he was a very strong man to have fought for so long. My prayers are with your whole family. He will be missed.

When we joined Cross Lutheran Church nearly 18 years ago, Gene's name was on the prayer list. It was many years before we finally met him. He was a remarkable fellow. And, thanks to God's grace, we were all able to enjoy him here on earth for many years.

I just found out that Bruce has left this world and has joined our Lord in a much more comfortable place. Please know that you are in our hearts. Linda and Dale Nygaard

I'm truly sorry to hear of Bruce's passing .He was my age, and reminds me of how fragile and sometimes short life can be... We had shared many classes Grade School and High School and have fond memories of his smile and laugh.
Take care of yourselves; he will be missed by many..

Linda and Family-

I learned of Bruce's passing when I was at my parents in Rochester this past weekend. I want you to know how sorry I am. I will keep you in my prayers.

Linda & Hannah - I have been thinking of you this week, when I found out about Bruce's Passing. There are tough times ahead. But you are strong and with Hannah by your side you will find strength. Unfortunately, I feel a special kinship with you because as you may know I lost my husband (Dan) 20 months ago to Brain Cancer. My 3 children have been a blessing and a contstaint reminder of his love. If you need to vent or just talk to someone who has been down this road please do not hesitate...

Linda, Hannah and family, We are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May pleasant memories give you strength through this difficult time.

Linda, you and Hannah and the rest for your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I'd be up there for the service, but my schedule won't allow it. I know how much everyone will miss Bruce!
Love, Nancy Heider

We were so sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
