My sweet loving Bruce, I loved you the moment I laid eyes on you. I have younger brothers but not a big brother until you stepped into that spot. Thank you for your support thru my life, for the long talks, you always called me Babe, and made me feel like I was very important to you. Thank you for your loving support thru my cancer and chemo. I will never forget you as long as I live, I will see you again soon. Tell all the family hi for me and give them big hugs that I can't give them, I love you always !
Sending our deepest sympathy and condolences
So sorry for the loss of Bruce. We are thinking and praying for all the families. God bless with love.
Bruce was such a sweet, gentle man. My prayers are with all the family. I will never forget you Bruce and how you would always ask me how I was doing & call me kid; it warmed my heart. May you RIP.

Love your Sis Char (babe as you called me ) when we talked. And a big thankyou to Chris for seeing after you.. ðŸ™ðŸ' ðŸ™
Bruce was a wonderful person, it was such a privilege to know him. I know, Bruce is at peace, a new found peace, not a peace that the world gives, knows or could understand. I held him, as he cried over his tour in Vietnam, something he no longer has to live with, he was a person, too kind for Vietnam!! Love you, Bruce...RIP!!
Bruce was a good man and even better friend. We were privileged to know him. Your family has our deepest sympathy, he will be missed.
