Bruce Harrison Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Bruce was a light in every room, known for his sunny personality, sharp wit, and unwavering authenticity. To know him was to love him. He made fast friends wherever he went, always ready with a joke, a listening ear, or a helping hand.
Bruce had a deep love for the outdoors. He felt most at peace in nature-whether it was hiking in the woods with his wife Christian and their dog Bulma, or spending time at the beach, his favorite place. The ocean brought him calm and joy, and it was one of the last places he was able to visit before his passing.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Christian; his children, Emma, Adalae, and Connor; his mother, Brenda Lovelace; his father, Jim Harrison; and his brother, JM Harrison.
Bruce's memory will be carried on in the laughter of his children, the warmth of the sun on a beach day, and the countless stories shared by those who loved him.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date for family and friends.
