My deepest sympathy to the family, Bruce was my Second level supervisor in the 1980s and the one that I respected the most, he was a man of Integrity, fair and honest. He was also one of the strongest people I have ever known. I remember having fun arm wrestling with him, Of course he won. May He Rest In Peace. Ramon Perez

I was lucky enough to have your husband/father as my first boss as a rookie manager. That was 48 years ago and he's still etched in my memory as one of the best leaders I've ever had. His ethics, humor, professionalism, and human compassion stood the test of time and served as examples I always tried to duplicate.
He truly stood heads above the rest when ti came to being a great role model.
He will be missed!
