What a fun guy...he sure knew how to have a good time. He will be missed by so many. I was shocked to hear the news and my heart goes out to his family, Rachael and his boys. You were so much fun to dance with Brucie. Thinking of you all as you say goodbye today. Renee Erlander (Davidson), Evergreen, CO
