Jeff and Jonny Wuensch are sorry to hear of Bruce's passing at such a young age. Jeff was in his class at Pike and both Jeff and Jonny enjoyed the Sundays spent with Bruce racing their motocross bikes.

I'm so sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. My condolences to his family and Joy. We had a lot of great times together. I'm sure he's playing the coolest drum set ever right now. Much love and peace to you.

I was so sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. I hadn't seen him in many years, since shortly after I managed a band he was drummer for, Sea Witch. I wasn't aware until reading this obituary, that he was such a protector of animals, we would have been friends because I run a no-kill animal shelter. God Bless you Bruce, I wish we could have stayed in touch. My sincerest condolences to his family.
