Very sad to hear that Joe will no longer be on this earth. We went to W.A. Central with him and haven't seen him since. What a wonderfully warm person and was always a stand-up guy. Our prayers are with you and your families at this difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing, he was a great friend back
thru the college days and beyond.
He introduced me to some great friends of his and I feel bad that
I was never able to keep in touch.
He will be missed and I wish all his family & friends the best. Kerm

My sincere Condolences to the Brucker Family. I have many memories of times spent with Joe. As John mentioned the home on 72nd street, selling beer at Milwaukee County Stadium, and the Lincoln Square day's. Most of all Joe's friendship will be missed. It's been along time since we crossed paths, but I know we would have picked up where we left off. My thoughts & Prayers to all Joe's Family members.

I'm so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. We spent "the Ripon College" years together during which Joe was a great friend, teammate and fraternity brother. We had too many great times together to detail but I will think of Joe often and remember these great times. My condolences to Joe's family.

I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Joe as a "friendly to everyone" kind of guy in high school. I'm so sorry he left us so early in life.

Joe was always a hero of mine. He just seemed to enjoy life so much. Such an easy going guy. Does anyone remember the Animal House on 72nd st?
I remember being in Miami Beach with him and Marlene. They let me stay close to a week. Such a cool couple. I'll miss Joe even though I haven't seen him in years.
I will pass this bad news to my brother Matt. I know Matt loved Joe a lot. My sympathy to Marlene and the rest of Joe's family.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Brucker,
It seems like yesterday Joe in his mustard colored sweat pants showed up to play tag football at the park. If I remember correctly he ran us into the ground. That was the last time I saw him. Sorry for your loss.

My sympathy and prayers for Joe's family. Although I did not know Joe well, I know his father, George, and his Aunt Sarah Borgealt, who are my mother's cousins. It is always difficult when someone so young is taken from his family into eternal life.

God Bless the entire Brucker Family.

Sorry to hear that Joe passed away at such a young age. I have not seen Joe in over 30 years. Yet I have fond memories of our days at LaFollette Grade School and park. It seems to me as if it were just yesterday that we were there playing baseball with others from the neighborhood.
