I remember bruce well in East Northport Jr. High and then later in High School when he met his better half. Bruce was always a regular knock around guy and ways quick with a smile. Rest in Peace Pal.
I have to say I knew Bruce well, he stayed with my family when his mom moved move to stay with his brother in PA., One of my lfe long best friends and always family in my home, The nicest person, the hardest worker, quick to smile, loved life, his family and everyone enjoyed to be with him. I was able to spend a day with him not long ago, he hug me and smiled and said no regreats and thanked me for being his friend. What I guy! I will miss him everyday.
Bruce was in a class or two with me at East Northport Jr. High. Being so far away from Northport for so long, and not seeing everyone, all my memories of classmates are young 18 year olds. It’s so sad that we have lost so many friends from so long ago. Rest with the angels’ Bruce.
Rest in Peace Bruce. He was such a nice guy in school. When I sent my condolences to his wife, Sheila, she sent me a message saying, "You're the one that got us together in the beginning ... Sadie Hawkins dance in 9th grade!!!!" I'm so grateful they were together all those years. From their family photos, you can see what loving children/grandchildren they brought into this world. Thank you Bruce & Sheila. You are heavily in our thoughts and prayers.
Bruce and I met our junior year in Fred Mayer's mechanical drawings class and quickly turned our attentions from designing building's to building old classic cars, after all it was the 60's, and muscle cars were it. Bruce and I spent many nights after work restoring his 1956 Austin Healey from the frame to the beautiful black leather interior. In our senior year his mom moved out to Pennsylvania, and Bruce wanted to stay at North port, so I asked my parents if Bruce could live with us, so our family grew by one that year, and we became Best Friends, and shared the rest of our lives sharing life together with our families and friends. It has been a wonderful ride together, I never met a more giving person, and He will be truly missed.
I remember Bruce always had a smile. And although we were not friends, he was always kind. My condolences to Sheila. They were together for so long. I know she must miss him, but in time good memories will sustain her.

I didn't know Bruce at all but it stings to hear of losing any one of our old class mates. Godspeed, Bruce.
