Bruce was born and lived his entire life in Swindon. He made great friends throughout his career in the building industry.

Bruce was a devoted husband to Mary and father to Vanessa and Shawn. He was immensely proud of his Grandchildren, Evelyn, Cormac and Carys. He is survived by his brothers Alwyn and Trevlyn and will join his brother Shawn at rest for eternity.
