Much respect for Bruce. Only knew him from our conversations while delivering mail. Was always so friendly and had such a cool, calm way about him. ( Even when I was totally stressed )
Sending love & prayers to Bobbi, Nick & all who knew him...

I've known Bruce since the 1950's. Our families shared racing until mine moved west. Re-established friendship with Bruce after I started racing and made a few trips to Ohio to crew his race car. I regret not maintaining that friendship the past several years. I am proud to have known him and Bobbie, and hope his family knows how many cared for and admired him. May God bless him and give peace to his family.
