Dear Brian,
Bruce was a very important part of my teenage years-he was always a friend that I could count on. He made the class reunions a lot more fun. I hadn't seen him for years but he was often in my thoughts. I an so sorry for your loss.
sincerely

I've only know Bruce for a few years now, but I always looked forward to running into him at the beach in the morning, as did my dog Helen, who could spot Bruce walking from a mile away. I wish I would have known him better, but I consider myself lucky for knowing him at all.

Will Rogers once said "If there are no dogs in heaven, then when I die I want to go where they go." Wherever that is, we'll find Bruce there too.

Brian and family,
Bruce and I were good friends for many years. It's been 2 years since he and I last spoke. I am saddened to hear of his death. He was a kind and good man, misunderstood by many, but to know him was to love him. We helped each other through many difficult times. He was always there when you needed him. I know he is in a better place now. I miss his dry sense of humor, him calling me Missy, and those silver locks of his. My condolences to you and yours. I miss you bunny.
