It was wonderful working for Bruno. He had a discipline and diplomacy at work. He was a loving husband, for Norma would call him on a daily basis. He was a great leader of various Divisions for many years.

I had the pleasure of working with Bruno for many years and always admired his knowledge and integrity. I'll always remember the night of the '89 earthquake when we were in Ontario and trying to get home. My deepest sympathies to the family.

Bruno was Chief of the General Engineering Branch of the Utilities Division in 1975 when I was hired into his Branch by George Amaroli. Bruno demanded good work, and we produced. I appreciated his discipline and professionalism. To earn a smile and compliment from Bruno for work well done was the highest achievement. I am thankful for all he tough me. I grieve on his passing. Please accept my deepest sympathy for you loss.
