Bruce was a dear friend. We parted ways going into the world after high school and reconnected 5 yrs ago in Steinhatchee, Fl (right down the road from Mayo). Friends like Bruce are hard to come by and can never be replaced. I will miss his friendship.

I remember Bruce as a very young boy. We were good friends of his mom and dad back in the early sixties. Many fond memories from years ago. Sincere condolences to his entire family.
