Bruce was a plumber by trade and did a six month stint on the D.E.W. Line, and worked eight years at Red River Community College, plus many years in the construction trade for various firms.

He loved the lake in his retirement and enjoyed birds, nature, his garden and yard and was always puttering. He will be missed by many for his, fine qualities, loving nature and quick smile. He will be remembered for his parting words on the telephone, Love Ya to Bits! . A memorial service will be held at Grace Lutheran Church, 211 Kimberly Ave. on Wednesday, July 13 at 11:00 a.m. followed by a reception. Pastor Bruce Gelhorn officiating.

The Good Lord wanted Bruce back! The nicest guy you could ever meet and the best father-in-law ever, I'll always miss you buddy. He was a simple man with a great trust in God. So kind, he would bring birds that hit his window "back to life" by picking them up and rubbing their Bellies! He looked a little too much like Santa Claus and was just as nice, God bless. - Posted by: Erie Kirouac (Son in law) on: Apr 29, 2017

I have memories of a wonderfully kind, caring and warm person. He was such a genuinely good man. My last memory was a big hug from him just 2 weeks ago. A lot of good childhood memories too. - Posted by: Lisa Crozier (Friend) on: Jul 12, 2005
