      Bruce was my neighbor, my boss, and my friend. He gave me a job when I needed it. Bruce always tried to hire local people if he could. I’ll never forget before I had a kidney transplant it looked like I was going to loose my insurance before I could return to work. Bruce came out to the shop and handed me a check to cover cobra insurance premium for a month just in case I needed it. That really took a lot of stress and worry off me and my family. Bruce truly was one of a kind . Paula, Bruce will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. Our prayers are with you, Scott and Laura until you meet him again.

      Bruce lit up our room and our life whenever he entered with that giant laugh and smile.Bruce was instrumental in bringing our speaker to life- without his support, kindness, generosity and the resources he allotted to us -SCAENA would not have existed. It was an honor to call him friend. He will be sorely missed. Condolences to the entire family on your loss.
