Ann,
We are so sorry for your loss.
I discovered this quote that I couldn't help but be reminded of Bruce.
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain.
I remember him as the best dancer I know. Not much held back from living his life as actively as his health would allow.
We all love him and know that we can still refer to him in the present because his spirit still lives in our family's collective soul.
Every time he is thought of, there will be Bruce sightings that will continue forever in our hearts.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
