Bruce was born to Gareth and Virginia Donlon in Yokosuka, Japan. Bruce's' first 5 years were in Cedar Hills, a budding community of Beaverton, OR. Then moved to Portland, where he spent his formative years.
He resided in Renton Washington most of his adult life where he met the love of his life, Patricia Blessing, 37 years ago. Bruce had 3 sisters, Debra, Kimberly, and Lorie (Dan).
Bruce was proud of his 30 years of service with Spicers Paper where he consistently made top 15 sales person in the company.
Bruce's love for fireworks was beyond normal and his firework displays were spectacular! His other passions were fishing and duck hunting. He enjoyed great food and would always be found sleeping in a chair after a meal at family gatherings.
Bruce is survived by his loving partner Patricia and many loving extended family members. We will greatly miss him.
A small celebration of life for family will be held at a later date to be determined.
