To Bruce's Family, Bruce always helped us in work. I was surprised when he did not respond to our e-mails last week because he would always be there to assist us. After losing my son in Iraq, I spoke with Bruce when I returned to work and he was very concerned and expressed how bad he felt. I now express how bad I feel about the loss of a really friendly, down to earth person that I have known for quite a few years. The last thing I would like to remember about Bruce is that even though we were not on his level in work, he treated us as we were his equal. Rest in Peace Bruce, I promise to remember you!

May your memories bring you peace, comfort and strength. I did not personally know Bruce, but his sister Karen from Montana is a great friend so I know he was equally a wonderful person. Wishing you strength and peace in the days ahead.

Dear Kathy and family;
We were shocked to see that Bruce had passed.
We have so many fond memories of Bruce and his Mom and Dad. In our last conversation with him he was so funny... He remarked that he would someday retire and "get out of Dodge" also. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I had the pleasure of working with Bruce at Princeton Armored and CDC. Over the past few years our communications were limited to phone calls or a chance meeting at the FRB. It was always great to talk to Bruce he was always positive and energetic.
Bruce was a wonderful person. Hardworking, honest and always ready to lend a hand. My deepest condolences to his family.

Dear Kathy, Christine and Emily,
We were both so shocked at the news of Bruce passing. I feel a star shines brighter, but all too soon. Such a wonderful person in all aspects of life. He is gone, but the wonderful memories will be with us all forever. I certainly enjoyed each time I came back to have spent a great time with you all. When things get really sad, remember the laughter he always could bring with him. Our prayers are with you all.
Always, Barbara and John

Kathy and Family -
I am very sorry for your loss. My memories of Bruce go way back to our childhood and camping. He was always the big brother of the gang. We were all so excited when he would jump in the pool with us cuz he was the best chicken fighter around - no one could pull him down.
Our paths have crossed a few times since then and he has always been the warm and welcoming guy I remembered him to be and so very proud of his family.
You are all in our prayers.

Dear Kathy, I am deeply saddened to hear of your loss of Bruce, your wonderful husband of 33 years and great dad to his 2 daughters. I didn't know much of him, except he was always the nicest guy to me. We have many pictures of you and him and also fond memories of backdoor parties at the house. I feel God wanted one of his angels back home sooner than we expected. May his soul forever be at peace. May you and your family find strength from your extended family and friends. We will remember him always. Call us if you need our help.
