I'm sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. I knew Bruce for many years as he was a friend of my uncle Tom Middleton. Bruce actually took me on my first airplane ride that started me on a professional career as a pilot. I hadn't seen him in recent years but when I did I enjoyed hearing what new endeavor he was into at the time, from car lots to bowling alleys and everything in between. He was a good guy!

I have known Bruce for about 50 years. He was a man of many talents. We bowled on and off together for about 25 years and won several league titles. We started golfing with Leo and Nitz in 1988 every Thursday for 30 years. He was the organizer and driver and prided himself in finding us a different course to play each week. The day would include golf, cards, and dinner at a nice supper club. He would keep us entertained in the car with telling us about his many exploits of his past. He was a very interesting person and should have written a book. He was a good man and will be missed and not forgotten.
