Not sure what to say?

Bruce,
In the short time I knew you, you made such an impact on me. You were so kind, humorous, understanding, and warm. I feel honored to have been able to be your massage therapist. My thoughts and prayers are with Dave and your family at this difficult time. I was so sad to have heard you have passed but find solice in that you are not hurting anymore up in heaven. I would have been at your memorial if I would have known about it in time.

Bruce--

I will always treasure wonderful memories of good times with you at CMU. I am happy that I got a chance to visit with you and Dave and see your smiling face again. You will be missed. God Bless.

I only met Bruce once, but I was struck by his kind nature and that in spite of his own suffering, he took an interest in my life. I wish I had had the opportunity to get to know him more. Mr. P (Dave), if you read this, please know my prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Bruce,
I will never forget all the fun times we had at CMU! Kathy and I were so glad that we were able to visit with you and Dave this summer. Your laugh and smiling face will be in my memory forever. God Bless You!

Goodbye Brother,

We will miss you always, you were too young to leave us. You were so neat and organized. I'll miss our phone conversations. Give mom a hug in heaven for us. Rest in peace, with all our love.

Uncle Bruce,
You and Grandma are watching over us now. Take care of Grandma, and thank you for being so strong over the years. Dave my thoughts are with you.

Love always, Autumn, Kenny and Paige

It was an honor to work with Bruce at the Lacks Cancer center. He will be greatly missed. We all knew him and we will all miss his presence. I hope to make it on Sunday. Dave, You were a great guy to bruce, you were there when he needed you, and I know he appreciated it greatly. I wish you well.

UB:

An individual’s life is best defined not by the number of years lived rather, by the impact they’ve made using their God given talent and ability. Although you’re life was short in terms of years; you effectively used your God given talent and ability to impact many lives. I will never forget the conversations you and I had on some difficult subjects which required me to evaluate my life. I know I’m a better husband and father as a result and for that I will forever be grateful....

Bruce has been a great ray of sunshine in my life. I can't begin to express what he has meant to me and how he has changed my life. He is now home with Sabby ( Sir Sebastine 4 Paws ) & Scooter. I will deeply miss my great friend.
