Bruce came in to my life at a point I needed someone most. I was a lost 14 year old kid, whose father had just died, and this cool as guy took me under his wing. I learnt so much from him and he had a huge impact on me becoming the man I am.
Never, ever forgot......

GOODALL, Bruce Thomas . On Sunday morning my heart shattered into a million pieces and each piece another reason why I love you. I am very honoured and proud to have been your wife for 27 years, to have lived with you for over 30, and to have known you for over 40. How lucky am I? You are and will always be the love of my life. I can never doubt your love for me because you told me every single day. I know you wanted to stay but after all the battles fought in your life, it was time for you to rest. Bruce, I have many wonderful and special memories of our life together. I have a heart with your name on it. Love you all ways and always from now until forever. Joy.
