I am the bus driver that help saved Bruce's life. We talk several times over the last 3 months. He sounded great and said he was feeling better. We were talking about me stopping by to see him when he was ready. Now I am sorry and sad to hear of the family's loss. I feel that I would like to see him.
May God Bless him and all his family in this time of sorrow.
