Survived by the absolute star in his life, son Chase and his mother Debbie, brother Paul, his daughter Michelle and granddaughter Jordyn, sister Sheila and brother Grant. Bruce played hockey very well through his teen years and enjoyed curling, as well as hunting trips with Dad and the boys. Bruce and Chase enjoyed many camping trips together, quite a few air shows in the US and Canada and recently golfed together for Chase's first game. Bruce spent nearly 20 years in the glass business after time well spent at the U. of M. For the past six years, Bruce has been part of the production management team at Naleway Foods in Winnipeg where he made many friends and earned the respect of his coworkers.
