I feel I can speak on behalf of myself and my family that all the support and love from everyone is what helped us and Dad through this difficult time. Words can not express how much everyone will miss him, especially me. I love you Daddy!!!

Bruce,
You'll be missed especially your humor but you got a new audience to work with and I'm sure you'll leave them rolling in the aisles.

To Bruce's family: We are thinking of you today, and wishing the miles were not so many, so we could be with you. We loved Bruce and he was a special cousin. With sympathy, Mike and Lynne

Bruce - You were truely a wonderful person to know, a hope and inspiration to our family. Every memory brings a smile to our faces. It was great to have worked with you, you will be sadly missed.

Bruce, It was my honor and privledge to work with you. It brought tears to my eye's when I heard about your passing. Who will I talk to about the EAGLES.You were the man at Cardinal Health.

Bruce,
Even though I have only work at cardinal for 1yr it seems like I have knowen u for a long time. I remember them days on the smoking patio with you and you told me a new joke every time. I also remember sitting in Roy's office and looking at pictures of the 2 of you on your trips and him telling me how much fun he had. Carrie and family, I am sorry about the lose of your loved one. You guys are in my thoughts and prayers.
You will always be missed.

To the Ropiecki family,
My deepest condolences go out to the entire family for your loss. Bruce was a great man and I feel honored to have been able to work with him at Cardinal. He will be missed by many.

We knew Bruce from 1982 and had many great times together when we all lived in West Virginia. He was always the life of the party, and the king of our Trivial Pursuit clique. Bruce was intelligent, funny and a great person who had a very positive affect on our lives. We only kept in touch with Holiday cards and e-mails in the last few years and now we regret that we didn't take the time to get together over the years. Our sympathy and prayers go out to Carrie and Brenda, and the rest of the family during this most difficult time. Rick, Lita, Robbie and Phillip Bender.

Bruce...we will always remember the good times in Mt Sterling. You were a great friend and always fun to be around. You will be missed but not forgotten

Bruce, my friend you were able to find levity in most all situations. We have suffered a great loss not only professionally but personally. "The World's Greatest Transportation Manager" has just found a better place to work out of. You will be missed.

Bruce - you brought sunshine to many a cloudy day. Your commitment and passion were evident by your continued great results and you were one of the major reasons Swedesboro became the number one distribution center in all of Cardinal. Every year at our holiday party you would give a wonderful blessing asking the Lord to lookout over others, today we ask the Lord to lookout over you and your family. May you rest in peace and may your family know that you have left a special gift with everyone that had the pleasure of your company.

So Bruce, I will be saying 'later' to you for the final time in a short while. I just wanted to let you know that in your honor, I am sporting non-matching socks - one with a hole in the toe! Your humor and zest will be missed until we meet again.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Bruce,
You are truly a unique person that impacted so many lives in a positive manner. Knowing you has made me a better person. Thank you for all your guidance, support, knowledge and most of all your friendship. I will forever treasure your memory. God bless you ..... Semper Fidelis

I was lucky enough to have worked with Bruce at Cardinal for 4 years. He was a man of many talents with a great sense of humor. He always lived life to the fullest and was so proud of his family. I can only hope that knowing the impact that Bruce had on so many lives can bring you a small measure of comfort now.

Bruce,
I'll always remember you bringing Nina and Scottie to see Santa or the Easter Bunny every year. You were such a wonderful uncle. You had such a kind heart that was always thinking of people at the Rescue Mission or at the Shelters. I miss hearing your voice down the hall from my office. It always made me smile. I'll never forget you and your compassion. My thoughts and prayers are with your dear family. God bless you my sweet friend.

It was an honor and a priveledge to have worked with Bruce. There was never a dull moment when you were around him. He was many things, as he liked to proclaim such as the world's greatest transportation manager as well as the world's sexiest man. I would like to add another the world's luckiest man, having so many friends and family that cared.

Bruce...may you rest in peace. Your sense of humor, stories, and life lessons will not soon be forgotten.

Our family's Prayers are with you and your family. It was a pleasure knowing and working with you. I will miss your wonderful voice!

My prayers are with the "Ropiecki Compound", as Bruce would say. During my time at Cardinal, Bruce was someone that would always tell you like it is…sometimes too “like it is”. There was never any wondering what Bruce was thinking or who he was. He was a very passionate man and he believed in the things that he did. We can all take a page from Bruce's book by living life to its fullest, take pride in our actions and be proud of who we are. Even if it means sitting in our office with our shoes off and our feet on the desk. God Bless. You will live on through our reflection.

Carrie, Brenda and all of Bruce's family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow. Bruce will be missed but he will always be there watching over you. Cherish and remember the good times.

Heaven is now a better place with you there. You will be missed greatly.

Bruce aka "The Greatest Transportation Manager", no matter what the problem was you always had a joke on hand. You will be deeply missed at Cardinal. May God bless you and your family.

Bruce was a good friend and great boss. When I needed to vent, he would not only listen, but have me laughing in the end. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Although I only knew Bruce for a short period of time, I knew he was a great man. He made an impact with me, as well as many others. May God be with Bruce on his new adventure and also with his family.

Hey Now...Bruce I know that God & his angels are never going to have another dull moment now that you have gone home, our lives however will never be the same here on earth now that you are gone because you have touched our lives with your humor,honor,smiles & wisdom. Carrie & family I am truley sorry for your loss and you all are in my thoughts and prayers.

To a man that always put a smile on everyones faces. My blessing go out to your family. May the lord take care of you know! God bless

It was my distinct pleasure to have worked with Bruce at Cardinal. He spoke with authority and commanded respect. He was one of a kind & truly made an impact on everyone around him. We are all better people for having been a part of his life. It can truly be said that there will never be another one like Bruce Ropiecki. There is a tremendous void in all our lives. May he rest in peace!

Now what....you taught me everthing about the transportation business...whose going to be my mentor, who is going to set me straight!....you will be missed in business & in life, but its nice to know you are in a peaceful place.

My prayers and thoughts to the Ropiecki family. I spent a single evening with Bruce at dinner and enjoyed the stories of his travels and his family.Yes I was blessed to sit right next to him. He will be missed in many ways.

Dear Carrie & Family,

I am at a loss for words; so I have looked to another's words to express our sympathy.

"No person is ever truly alone. Those who live no more, Whom we loved, Echo still within our thoughts, Our words, our hearts." ~ by R. Fife

With deepest sympathy - you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Love Uncle Pat, Aunt Franie, Patrick, John and Kathy

You will be greatly missed "funny man".Never a day went by without a Ropiecki joke.To your family my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Bruce, I'll never forget our training session when you pulled out the toy trucks and explained the logistics of our transportation system. You had a way of making everyone feel as though you were part of the team, no matter how long your tenure with Cardinal. God bless you and your family.

We will miss you. You made alot of people laugh with your HUMOR. I'm glad I got the chance to work with you.

Dear Ropiecki family,
May you find peace in reflection of precious memories for many years to come. You are held in gentle thought and prayer.

Bruce,
Who am I going to argue w/ about getting my bills signed (all in the name of fun)? I am going to miss all the frequent stops you use to make at my desk for chocolate. I am greatful to have worked with you for the last five plus years. You are truly one of a kind and a great human being. Your are going to be missed dearly.
To Carrie and family - My thoughts, prayers and sympathy go out to all of you.

I don't think i ever laughed as much with anyone like i did when i was with you. You taught me more about life than anyone will ever know. Our trips together, our lunches, our long talks...I'll never forget them my friend.

Bruce you are one of the greatest men that I know. You have helped me thru thick and thin; work and personal situations. You are going to be missed so much. Not being able to hear your "Heah Now" is not going to be the same. I know you are in a better place and in peace. Bruce, I will miss you and one day we will meet again. God Bless!

Your sense of humor and great personality will never be forgotten. I feel honored to have worked with you for the past 4 + years. You will be sadly missed.

To Bruce's family: Bruce is a great guy and I am fortunate to have met him to enjoy good times and laughter with him. Bruce you will be sadly missed.
My prayers are with the Repecki family.

Sometimes the Lord places people in our lives who have such an impact we treasure the times spent in their company...thank-you for being one of those people...thank-you for always taking time out of your busy schedule on the many occasions I came into your office , never turning me away but always listening, guiding , advising and sometimes, just making me laugh...thank-you for the times you shared what was on your heart and mind and allowing me to do the same... you will be greatly missed my friend ...until me meet again in Glory...Candy

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help at this time.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

We are very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Bruce, our Lord now has one more soldier in his Army of Angels. God willing, I'll see you again one day.Until then,missing you
Jesse

Carrie and Ropiecki Family. I would like to wish my deepest condolences for your loss. Althought I have never met Bruce personally, we spoke many times on the phone thru my sister Dianna at Cardinal. Bruce always made me laugh anytime we spoke, he seemed to have such wild spirit about him. You and your Family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Will miss you buddy. We had some wonderful adventures together and I'm glad to have known you.

Say hi to Hilda
