    Bruce was a good fellow.. Helped me to put City Rexall one time way back, always helped me with any problem with real estate if it was something he could do on property I needed done. All around, pleasant and when his little boy started to school, he confessed he could not read and he was very worried he could not read. We found someone to help fix the problem, which helped him and his little boy. A great humble fella that was always grateful for anything or time that people gave him.
