Bruce's life with us will always be remembered.

I am proud to say he was like a Dad to me, for over 25 years I have had you him in my life, how lucky was I!!

He was a hardworking, kind, considerate and a extremely generous man.

i have so many wonderful memories, when we were younger he always put up with all of Debi's friends at the house, either in Rotorua or Opotiki, he welcomed anyone with open arms, well actually normally a beer. Winking smile We have been cooked some amazing BBQ beer battered fish from Bruce and geez could he cook a great steak too!!

My visits back to Opotiki wont be the same without you their, but you will always be in our hearts and never be forgotten in our lives, be at peace now.

Love Always

I thought of you with love today
but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday
and days before that too,

I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name
All I have are memories
and your picture in a frame.
