Bruce Calvin Stover's Obituary
Bruce Stover passed away unexpectedly on July 13 following a short but valiant fight against cancer. Born on January 31, 1953, Bruce was a native Dallasite and the son of Jerry S. Stover and Maxine Stover, both of whom predeceased him, and the stepson of Juanita A. Stover, who also predeceased him. A graduate of San Marcus Academy and of the University of Texas, Bruce was for more than 20 years on the staff of both the University of North Texas in Denton and Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Widely read, politics was his first love, followed closely by all things to do with aviation. A person with a large and open heart, Bruce will be sorely missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his brother Sterling Stover, stepsister Laura Homer and stepbrother Bob Locker, and cousins Ron Webster, Stephen Webster, Betsy Hamilton, Mike Shroyer, Doug Shroyer and Indy Blaney, as well as numerous great nephews and nieces.
