Sorry for your loss! I just learned of the passing of Bruce today by a fellow coworker. I was very saddened to hear the news of him passing on into eternity. Bruce was an awesome man! He was a great supervisor at PA Board of Probation and Parole. He was by far the best supervisor ever and will always be remembered for his humor and genuine kindness. Continued prayers for the family.

Dear Kristin:
We just learned about your dad's passing today.
You have always been so sweet and polite and such a hard worker. Our hearts are so heavy for you right now. As a father, I am absolutely certain that your dad was so proud of you. I know he was confident in your future and knew you would be ok in this world! That's all any parent wants - is for their children to go on and have a great life. Much love to you and your family. I pray that the love and happiness your dad gave to you will remain with you throughout your lifetime.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. The members of our CopNET family would like to thank Bruce Mays for his dedication and service to the citizens of Philadelphia. The passing of Bruce will be broadcast to our 3,570 members shortly and we would like to extend our sincere condolences to his family. His absence from our ranks will be deeply missed by the remaining members of Philadelphia's Finest who were fortunate to have served with him during his police career. He will continue in our thoughts and prayers during our remaining days. "Until we meet again, may God Hold you in the palm of his hand. " . . .
