Dale Bruce

Just saw this online. I joined the Federal Government in September 1973 and worked with Dale on large building dedication ceremonies at the U.S. General Services Administration.. He was a great friend, mentor and coworker. So sad to learn of his passing.

Maralyn and family,

Please accept our sincere sympathies as we acknowledge Dale's passing. When I arrived at OWU in September 1959, I soon became aware of Dale Bruce and his tremendous reputation among university personnel, particularly, the football team and coaches. Dale's abundant kindnesses to me are much appreciated and shall never be forgotten. Dale and Maralyn and others always provided a friendly caring face to Bonnie and me. Dale always stood for what was right in America...

I arrived at OWU in 1957 and as an athlete the name Dale Bruce was still being talked about even though he graduated 5 years before!!! What a man!!

Maralyn,

I learned of Dale's passing through John Kercher. Laurie and I offer our sincere condolences! Dale was a big reason I chose to attend OWU! It was a bonus when I learned he was a Fiji and that I had pledged Fiji. It was great to see Dale at Pig Dinners and Football games.

Dale was a class person and we will always consider ourselves fortunate to have met such a fine person!
