Condolences to Michelle and family, and Murray and family.
Spent many a weekend evening with Bruce and other mates at Neil and Val's house in Spinley Street in the late 70s and early 80s.
We did the end of High School together, Venturer Scouts together, and played junior grades rugby at TA old Boys.
I hadn't seen Bruce for at least 25 years, but he was always happy to chat when we did catch up. Sad to hear he's gone. RIP

Very sad news hearing of the passing of Bruce. I knew Bruce through my time at Fonterra and really valued working with him - he was a top guy. Bruce, with his business, Bain Liquids was second to none. His extensive knowledge, personable approach and willingness to help out at a moments notice and the most inconvenient times was outstanding. Can think of so many times that Bruce was there to help out and he would always say 'that's what we're here for and with a smile'. Thoughts are with Bruce's family and the team at Bain Liquids.

I have known Bruce as a workmate, contractor, business associate but most of all friend for the best part of 40 years. I will miss his humour and his candour as well as him dropping in for a cup of coffee between jobs out at Kawhia. My condolences to Michelle and family and also to the team at Bain Liquid Disposal.
