To May and family:
Our sincere sympathy goes to you and family. Bruce was a good friend and neighbor to my brother Glenn. We would enjoy seeing and talking to him from time to time when we visited Glenn. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time.

As I sit here watching the snow fall, my heart is filled with sorrow for the loss of my father. I wonder why our lives have to end so soon. It seems there is not enough time to do all the things we want to do before we die. But what I have learned from this is that we have to make time for the important things. I wish I would have been more persistant over the years in pursing a relationship with you. I will always regret that we never went fishing or just watched a movie together. When I see you again we'll make up for lost time. May you rest in peace until we meet again.
Love,
Julie

My deepest sympathy to the Sauerwine family. I'm grateful I got to see him last summer at the V.A. clinic, even though he was on oxygen and in a wheelchair he still had me laughing with his witty,dry sense of humor. I'll always remember him making a pool game,playing cards or just telling a good fish story. I am glad to have know him in my lifetime,he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers to the family.

We are saddened by the news of Bruce passing away. Joan and I got to see him while he was in the hospital which we were very thankful Bruce called us to come. May the Lord bless all of you during this time of sorrow until the day He reunites us all in his Kingdom. Kenny and Joan Bitler
