Bruce was a great guy. I worked with him at Motorola for many years. He was always ready to pitch in and help anybody and always made the wise cracks that made everyone laugh. He bragged about his family all the time. So glad I bumped into the 2 of you at Kohls a year or so ago. Our prayers are with your family.

Mary and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Bruce was a special friend, a Minnesota connection for Gary! He was a good man, always willing to help out, at church or out in the community. He will be missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Bruce was a true Rotarian. I enjoyed working with him on our joint Rockdale and Conyers Rotary Club projects and visiting with him at our joint socials. He embodied service above self. He will be very missed in our community. Bruce was good people.
