He was educated in Winnipeg and obtained a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Manitoba in 1971. Everyone who knew Bruce relished his quiet and easy style. He was a man of spirited determination and humour even in the face of adversity. Bruce spent his working life building his company, Mid-Continental Pump Supply which under his leadership grew into a successful and respected organization. In his private life Bruce enjoyed his family, especially his special times with his daughter Leslie. A man passionate about his golf, he delighted in being first on the course in the spring and last off in the fall. Shirley shared Bruces love of golf. They enjoyed many happy times playing together and during the off season took every opportunity to play a few extra rounds while vacationing in warmer climates. Bruce offered counsel and guidance to Scott and Amy who always recognized his sincere approach to their welfare. He will be sadly missed, but happily remembered by all those whose life he touched.
