Not sure what to say?

I still miss you POPS! You were so good to me. I am blessed to call you family. See you in Heaven!

Bruce I still remember you everyday. Whenever I see a VW or a wood craving. Hope and your love ones are together in Heaven. You will always be my friend, Mike

Well Bruce another year has passed, it doesn't seem like 12 years. I still think of you and the grand times we had chasing Bugs and MGs. So much changes that we don't have a hand in, we just push on. You are a good friend and I don't have many to talk to so I hope you don't mind when I look up to you. many good wishes your friend Mike.

Another year has passed, still so sad. Every time I see an old VW I think of you. Many of our old friends have passed on. This last year has been very rough with major health problems, I now know what you were going thru. Hope your girls are doing well, I know they miss you. Your friend Mike.

Can't believe that so many years have passed. I do think of Bruce a lot and he is remembered at work by many more with kind words and stories of how Bruce came into their lives. He came into my life and will always have a place there. He is missed and remembered and in our prayers.

Kathy and family:
Our condolences once again, we know you will miss Bruce. His passion and expertise on the "little bugs" is unmatched. He helped me become more passionate than I should have about them and the busses. To say he lived vicariously on that passion was not true, he lived the hobby right along with me. Our VW outings were great examples of how he loved the cars and trucks vw produced. I don't think I saw him happier than when we towed Elmer home to your home in North...

Dear Kathy & "Bruce's Girls"~ we are so very sorry for your loss. Bruce was a very dear friend from our days @ MUSC and we are privileged to have been reunited on e-mail in past years. He was a wonderful,caring soul that spoke so very dearly of you all. Never a harsh word, he set an example of how to live life everyday. We will miss him so dearly, but are now blessed to have him as an Angel watching over us all. May God help you all through this most difficult time~you are in our thoughts &...

Dearest Kathy....I know you just lost your best friend, but I pray that God will give you the peace and assurance that you will be in Heaven with Bruce thru all eternity...........I will be in Chas in May......hope to see you then.

To Bruce Yarnell's family,
I am so sorry to hear about Bruce. I got to work with Bruce a little bit when he was working at MUSC in the '90s. He was not only reliable, but considerate and you know he would tell you the truth if you had questions. His presence will be missed.
Sincerely,
Jan Barto
