Bruce worked as an oil field pumper, coal miner and a manufacturer for TG Missouri. He enjoyed the simple things in life, like sitting on his deck every morning with a cup of coffee while watching the sun come up. Bruce enjoyed early mornings on the porch with his wife, Diana, and his dog, Wags.
He is survived by his loving wife – Diana (née, Dunlap) Mattingly of Tilden, IL to whom he married on October 31, 1970 in Sparta, IL; two sons – Michael (wife, Kim) Mattingly of Smithton, IL and Thomas (wife, Jennifer) Mattingly of Pomona, IL; two granddaughters – Elizabeth Clare Mattingly and Rebecca Lynn Mattingly; one brother – Keith (wife, Donna) Mattingly of Tilden, IL; two sisters – Nancy Englehardt of Arnold, MO and Judy (husband, Joe) Renner of Pensacola, FL.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
