Bruce was born on October 13, 1928, in Sunrise, MN to Harry and Florence (Goebel) Wolleat, where he lived until he joined the Army in February of 1951 and served in the Korean War. Upon returning home, he married and raised his family in Sunrise.

Bruce had many jobs throughout his life, which includes, delivering beer for Hamm's, superintendent at the Arsenal, laborer for Opus Corporation, and his true passion of being a farmer.
