Paying tribute to Bruce

We don't have words for the loss we have suffered. Bruce passed away peacefully on the morning of October 18, 2022 at St. Mary's hospital in Rochester, MN. Bruce had a beautiful soul that touched everyone he met. His smile and laugh were contagious. Due to Bruce passing so unexpectedly and suddenly, we will keep the Go Fund Me page active due to expenses. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers through this difficult time.

Hi, my name is Bruce. I was diagnosed with Prostrate Cancer in May of 2021. It has been quite a journey since then. I was recently admitted to St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester, MN. It started with pneumonia. After several scans and tests, the doctors concluded that my kidneys were not functioning properly. We made the decision to have Nephrostomy Tube Placement surgery. They were happy with the outcome of the surgery, and my kidneys are getting back to where they need to be. When things were starting to go in a positive direction, I ended up having multiple mini-strokes that led to a Hemorrhagic Stroke. I quickly ended up in Neurology ICU, and after several CT scans and monitoring, Emergency surgery was needed to relieve the pressure and fluid on my brain. With everything that has happened in the past couple of weeks, I haven't been able to go to work. It will be a long road to recovery, and I am unsure when I will be able to return to work.

I am a very strong-willed person with a very possitive attitude, and I WILL get through this.
