Mr. Bruce was a pleasure to work for and a generous man.
His since of humor was something that I will always remember.
May God continue to Bless you!

Thank you Uncle Jim for your kind spirit and reminding us to never take life too seriously. And thank you for getting me interested in sports, especially Kentucky basketball, at a young age.

We've lost a favorite uncle. What a joker! Most of my memories of him are pure comedy. I know these past few years have been tough. R.I.P. Uncle Jim. Thanks for the "frimps'. You were truly one of a kind.
