DR. BRUCE WAS MY MOTHERS DOCTOR DURING HER BATTLE WITH CANCER FROM MAY 19994 TO NOVEMBER 2004. I WAS 15 AND HE WAS VERY PATIENT TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING SO THAT I COULD UNDERSTAND. I'M 30 YEARS OLD NOW AND STILL GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR TEACHING ABOUT OSMOSIS. HE WILL BE VERY MISSED BY MY FAMILY.

I had expected to see Greg at the 50th reunion of Transylvania graduates in 2010. He will be missed by his classmates and Transylvania - a benefactor and a colleague - God Bless. Tom Ripy

God blesses our lives with very special people and, Ms Ann, you and Dr. Greg were two of the special blessings that we will always remember from our first phone conversation with Dr. Bruce from the parking lot of Gulf Coast to the surgery, referral and followups marked with compassion, patient dedication, and the highest degree of medical and surgical professionalism. You are in our prayers for God's special peace to your heart at this time. We love 'ya, both!

I have been truly blessed when Dr.Bruce and God saved me from my colon cancer, so I could be here with my family. I was very upset when I read the obituaries from Ohio. I plan on moving back home soon, but there will be an empty place in the medical community and me without him.. My heart felt sympathy goes out to you Ann, and may God Bless You.

My mother Barbara L Stoner was saved by Dr. Bruce and God form her colon cancer, I had some minor surgery from him. He was an excellent Doctor, I hope he did not pass in pain, and may God bless Mrs.Bruce, you both were bery kind to my mother, Thank you!

The world needs many more Greg Bruce's. We will miss him in so many ways. A true friend and a life well lived. Ann, we share your grief.

Ann, I will always believe you and Dr. Bruce saved my life. He was a wonderful Doctor and a special man who will be so missed in this community. My prayers are with you. KathyAndrews

Mrs. Bruce,
My heart was saddened today when I read of Dr. Bruce's passing. I am grateful to have met and learned from him in my journey. He was one unique individual and I know he will be truly missed.My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Greg was our next-door neighbor. Not only was he an extraordinary physician; but a wonderful friend. We spent many of his last days trying to figure out how to solve the ills of our world. I'm sure he is already in heaven, "suggesting" to St. Peter how to improve God's airport arrival system. Greg - we will remember your kindness and compassion for many, many days to come.
