Obituaries

To be honest, I never met Bruce. I've only learned his name after his passing from friends who loved him very much. To Bruce: you made such a difference in so many lives. You'll live on in all the good you left behind.

I grew up with Bruce and have many memories of his humor and kindness. We reconnected several months ago and he was exactly the same amazing person he was when we were in school. My condolences to his family, girlfriend, and friends. He will be missed by everyone he has met.

So sorry to hear about Bruce's sudden passing and condolences to Blaine and family. I grew up with Bruce on Dickey Drive and we attended Caudle Park, AJ Smeltzer, and Sackville High together. He always made me laugh!

So sorry to hear. I haven't seen Bruce since High School -- he was my prom date! I'll never forget him pulling up in a borrowed old t-bird (or something similar).... was quite a struggle to get into that car in my gown! My condolences to his family and friends. RIP Bruce.

My sincere condolences to Bruce's family and friends. I knew Bruce from High School, and although it was a long time ago, Bruce was one of those people you never forget. His jovial nature is etched in my memory and I'll always remember his smile. Too soon!

Words will never convey the sudden loss of our dear, sweet Bruce who came into our lives and hearts and for that, we will always be truly thankful. Bruce once made a divine potato salad that could feed the five thousand and Belgian Chocolate waffles that melted straight into our daughter's heart.  We will always love you Bruce, Rest in Peace.

I have been thinking about Bruce since I found out that he had passed away. We lived across the street from Bruce, and his family since he and my son Robb were 2 years old. So many memories have been flooding my mind, mostly good, and funny times. There were times for sure when Sylvia and I wanted to put these two best friends in a for sale box. They played together in the mud with their trucks and dinkies and jumped off the side of the deck in the deep snow, attended the same schools and were usually found side by side somewhere. Dickey Drive was a street of young parents with young kids and the MacKinnons and the Kellys were exactly that. Losing Bruce so suddenly was like losing a family member and one who leaves us with so many happy and crazy memories. We will remember you always Bruce and will have stories to tell for many years to come. Rest in peace sweet man.

My deepest sympathy to you, Blaine, Gillian & Daniel. The last time I had a conversation with Bruce was almost a year ago on Messenger. I didn't know him well but I know your Mom spoke well of him, as well as all of you. You will be in my prayers.

I was shocked at hearing of Bruce's sudden passing. Sympathies to all those who loved him. My prayers are with all of you.

Rest easy my friend Bruce,I will always remember your kind manner and total love for animals.

I was so sad to hear about the passing of Bruce. I have such wonderful memories of him throughout school. He was always a kind, sweet soul....and always made me laugh. He is gone way too soon...Rest in Peace my friend

I am so sorry to hear of this sudden tragic news! My deepest sympathy and condolences to Bruce's family, especially his loving partner Wendy and her children and grandchildren. The love shared between Wendy and Bruce shone each time I saw them together. I only knew Bruce for a short time but in that time I could see how he radiated with Love and kindness and yes of course the odd joke or two. RIP Bruce, please watch over Wendy and the kids....

Bruce and I worked together years ago at the westin, we've always kept in touch. He was the kindest, sweetest man, with a heart of gold. He was always gentle in his inquiries about culture, religion, and had a thirst to explore and learn. He was so loving and always had a big smile on his face. Rip Bruce, you will be greatly missed!

Bruce and I would go one for one with stories and jokes You could always be guaranteed to be laughing as you left the door. My condolences to all who loved him.

Bruce will always be part of who I am. While Bruce and I traveled very different paths in life we were as close as brothers at one time and he will be forever remembered. Blaine, my condolences to you and Gillian and your family. He was take way too soon.

I would like to express my sympathies to Blaine and family in the loss of your brother. Be assured that you are all in my prayers.
