Dear Bruce (and Garland family), 

Most of my best memories from high school have you and your loving/amazing family in them- you were such a warm, loving and most of all supportive man and father to your girls. You took us all in and treated us as your own; sometimes straight spoiling us. I will forever be greatful and honored to have known you and to have had you as a part of my life- especially during such an important and impressionable time.

I know now that you are watching over your family from above and blessing them each and everyday of their life. 

My loving thoughts and prayers are with all of you everyday.

Warmly,
Alana

Well, we had the party you asked for! How I would love to call you and laugh on the phone with you ONE MORE TIME.  I already have so many stories to tell you.  I miss you more than words could ever describe. Always smiling and full of life like no other. There is only one you.  Man made as you would say, you are the best and gave your heart out.  Love you to the sky!

It gives me comfort to light you a candle in the morning when I wake up -you are always on my mind... I love you dad

Bruce, I can barely bare to see your name in this context.  My heart is broken.  A young father and grandfather gone too soon.  There was so much more for you to life through.  I keep telling myself that the fact that you are no longer in pain is the only reason for a warmer heart as most of my heart is saddness.

You were so good to so many of us and I wish I could have had the opportunity to take care of you at your time of need.

Until we meet again...
Connie Marie Garland

My heart is broken.  I can't hardly bare looking at your name in this context.  I know you are at peace and no longer in pain and for that reason only I feel comfort.  XOXOXOXOXOXO

RIP Bruce!  I am so glad I have all those wonderful memories of you when we were in High School at Westmont :) Your smiling face will never be forgotten!

I can't believe that you are no longer with us. You will be missed so much. I will miss all your teasing and your laughter that you brought to me and everyone else around you. You are a wonderful man with a loving soul. I know that you are in heaven looking down and smiling. Your daughters will miss you so much and my thoughts are with them during this hard time. Till we meet again Bruce! My thoughts are always with you and your family. Xoxo ❤

I'll always remember when you saw me you'd say hey Grandma "lets go out to dinner" some day we will.  You were and always will be a big part of my life. I'll love you forever.  Grandma Donna

I met Bruce in 1992.  I remember saying "hell no, I am not working with him!".  However, we did work together for many years & we became best buddies.  To me...I hit the lottery.  Bruce was the kindest soul I have ever met.  Full of life, love, and adventure, to say the least.  He had more stories to tell than any book I've ever read...besides, his stories and the way he told them were always the best!  My favorite is the one about the boxing gloves!  He made friends with just about everyone around him, he was kind & giving.  When he'd enter a room you'd want to know him & when he'd leave, you were glad to have met him... when will I see him again?  He was just that kinda guy who had such a presence about him.  I loved when he would call me out of the blue & leave me a message or talk to me for a minute just to let me know he was thinking about me.  Sometimes he'd stop by and bring me small gifts such as these little solar powered animals that dance. He named one Bruce, a dancing monkey with a banana, and I was the dancing bear, he would laugh so hard at them dancing.  He really thought it was funny.  There was nothing funnier to me than to watch Bruce crack himself up and then say out loud, "I crack myself up!".  We would laugh so hard tears would roll down our faces. He showed me such a good time no matter what we did or where we were, it was always fun just being around him.  I am so happy and grateful he was in my life and to have my own memories.  I am grateful that I spent the last few days of his life with him.  Thank you Shawny, I will never forget my time with you. I don't know anyone else like him and I doubt that I ever will...he is definitely one of a kind.  Your life was short lived, but man, what a hell of a life!  

"Throughout life you will find one person who is unlike any other. You could talk to this person for hours and never get bored you could tell them things and they would never judge you.  This person is your soul mate, your best friend.  Don't ever let them go"

Forever in my heart, "TJ" and to Bruce, "T"

Bruce;Gonna miss ya,,you were great. I'll think of you a lot.

I love you forever! Thank you for giving me my strength and knowing what unconditional love is all about-my heart will never be the same-you are a part of me and I will always make sure we are all ok... Get rest and take care of everyone up there ....I am so proud to be yours ... Your number 1 ❤

BRUCE R.I.P. YOU ARE A GREAT FRIEND I WILL MISS YOU VERY MUCH. There is not a day gone by i dont shed a tear  I will see you again some day.

I'm so sorry to hear you have lost a wonderful dad. He always had a smile to offer ... God Bless you all.

miss you Bruce. i will always remember all the great family times we had when us Stark's and the Garlands got together, You always had a smile on your face.  I will all ways remember your laugh.

I am absolutely heartbroken.  Bruce was such a great guy; so much fun; so good to family.  He was best man at our wedding and a very big part of our lives when we lived in Campbell and Almaden.  Great memories of spending holidays with him and speeding around Discovery Bay.
Bruce will be truly missed.  My prayers for his girls (my nieces) and all those who loved him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Bruce.

He always greeted you with a friendly smile and a "Hey baby". His smile and laughter will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace Brewski.

Bruce - I dont even know where to begin. Since  the moment I met you I could see where your girls got their big hearts from. You are such a special soul that touched so many people. You took all of us crazy girls in as though we were your own and always made us feel welcomed and loved. I will protect all of your girls forever and remind them how amazing they are and how you are with them day in and day out. Our world will not be the same without you, but we know you are not far and your girls know you love them more than anything. love you so much Bruce, thank you for always being there when we needed to laugh, cry, or just a good hug. 
~ Kace
