Bruce was a very interesting individual with an easy smile for both old friends and new folks alike. My wife, Doris, and I always enjoyed our social contacts with Carol and Bruce. We also get to meet some of their family during local events. Bruce had a knack for making friends using his casual good humor. Carol and Doris frequently played bridge together while the four of us also attended social club events Bruce was my only friend who was skydiving at age eighty. I admired his pizazz, but not enough to try to duplicate his aerial feats of daring do! He and I shared a love of our sales experiences and we 'understood' the selling process. To me, Bruce was one of the good guys whom I will miss. I know that Doris and I will continue to see Carol frequently and we will offer her moral support during the coming months and years.
Bruce Johnson was our next door neighbor along with his dear wife Carol. He and Carol made my wife Cynthia and me feel very special when we first moved into our new home next door. They became not just our next door neighbor, but our good friends. Our prayers are for Carol wishing her peace with all of the many memories of the many good times they shared for 66 years. May Bruce rest in peace. Love, Les and Cynthia Hotman
