Bruce was born in Vancouver but grew up in Richmond with his four siblings. Bruce shared many great memories of growing up in Richmond with his siblings and friends that he cherished and shared until he passed away. In 1993 he moved to Chilliwack with his wife and four boys. There Bruce established his own blind business and dedicated countless hours to the community through coaching his kids sports and connecting with so many. Bruce was known as a “one-of-a-kind character” that was sure to never be forgotten by everyone that had the chance to meet him. Bruce completed his certificate in concurrent disorders and pursued a successful career in drug and alcohol counselling. There he left his mark and impacted many in positive ways. Bruce had so much love to give and his legacy will live on through his kids and grandkids. He will be greatly missed.
