Bruce was one of the most energettic, fun loving person i have ever met in my short life. He lived to give and would do just about anything for his friends and loved ones. Its such a shame to see him pass at such a young age but at least he is finally out of pain. Ive spent a lot of time with him and his kids which are 2 of my best friends the past few years and I am very greatful that I was lucky enough to know such a genuine, honest and just all out great man. He was like a second father to me and will always be an insperation to me throughout my life. Rest In Peace Bruce. Wish you were here
