I was so sorry to hear of the passing of my very good friend & shipmate. As a young sailor on board USS Hubbard. I met Bruce and we had many great times on board and in port. I will remember Bruce and all our fun times 4 ever. Tom Ornazian

Dear Denise & Jonay,
So sorry to see Bruce's obituary in the paper today. Heart disease is such a curse as you well know. I used to work for your Dad at Meredith/RRD so I feel like I know all of you guys from all our conversations. I'm sure he will be missed especially by his daughter. My prayers for you all.

I am sorry to hear about Bruce. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. I have many fond memories of us growing up together. We spent a lot of time together up in the tree house. I drove through the old neighborhood the other day. It is sad to see what it has become. But the good times and memories still live on.
