Bruce was truly one-of-a-kind - A diamond in the rough! He made the best of life and touched so many people with his humor and crazy antics. If you didn't laugh when he was around, then you just don't like to laugh!
I'm heart-broken and will miss him, but i'm so happy and celebrating because Bruce finally got to go be with the Lord. I'll see you again one day Bruce!
