Had many great memories with uncle Bruce growing up. Golfing and Spending time with the family is what makes life enjoyable. Wasn´t there when he passed away and didn´t know he was sick till after he was gone. As adults we all get caught up in our own little lives and lose touch with those we love sometimes. Especially in the Archer clan it seems. He was always good to me and will be missed.
