I will miss you forever Daddy. I will miss playing sports with you and our long talks on the way home from gymnastics. I will miss your smile that would make me laugh when I was sad, and when I was happy you would make me even happier. (I remember this one time I did your nails pink and you went to work the next day (they stayed like that for the next 2 months) it was funny.)

I, like everyone else, was shocked and saddened to hear of Brian's passing.  Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Kristy, Peyton and Bella...I am very saddened to learn of your loss and words could never express how much my heart goes out to all of you.  Brian was a wonderful guy and I enjoyed seeing him for the two years he was pursuing his MBA.  I still remember meeting him and you Kristy at Printworks Bistro...He was in and you were the one that needed convincing it was the right thing to do.  He always came to class with a contagious smile and positive attitude.  You all are in my thoughts and prayers...if there is ever anything that I can do, just reach out.  God bless you Brian!

There is nothing that can explain such a loss of an individual that brought happiness to so many with his shiny charisma. Brian was our first UPS guy to pick up when we first started our business in Mooresville and continued for 10 years until we sold the business and then even when we started our new business. Safety Solutions would not have been the same without his team dedication, we were all like a family and he was part of it, everyone enjoyed his pleasant disposition even when there were bobbles and bumbles, he lifted us up. All  of the employees are saddened by his passing, so hard to imagine. He so will be missed by a community and our deepest condolences go out to his wife, beautiful girls and family. Be blessed by your shared time and memories and not by your loss, you had a treasure of a guy, loved by many. The Guest Book clearly shows what a great guy he was and will remain to be in all of our hearts.

 Kristy,  I am so sorry for the loss of Brian. Your husband, father, friend, and your soul mate. Brian loved you and the girls very much. He always talked about his family.
All the neighbors in Pinnacle Shores will miss his smiling face
and seeing him on holidays. Please continue to bring the girls
around on Halloween. Brian was part of the Pinnacle Shores family. We looked forward to seeing the brown truck and the wonderful person inside. He will be missed by all.

Kristy, I am so sorry for your loss of Brian....He was such a sweet young man and I never seen him that he didn't have a smile on his face....Please know that you and your girls are in our thoughts and prayers....Love you all,

Anita & Larry Shepherd

I'm gonna miss you pal!!!! You never skipped a beat. I admire the way you lived your life and the impact you had on everyone you met along life's way including myself. I have learned so much from you just by being friends for the last 12 years and thank God He let our paths cross. I can only hope to be the husband, dad, and friend that you were to me. Until we meet again.........

Brian was a great person. I have fond memories of Brian and his classmates at Southview Christian School. Prayers for his family and his friends during a difficult time.

Brian served the Pinnacle Shores neighborhood in Mooresville for years and we all knew him by first name.  Never without a smile on his face. Would honk the horn of his UPS truck whenever he passed us on Hwy 150. Always brought his family by to our home at Christmas to see our light display.  Of course from the day his daughter Peyton was born followed by Bella, the pictures were taken out of his wallet and proudly displayed.  We were so disappointed to have heard that his route had been changed and our favorite driver would no longer be knocking on our door.  No one could have ever imagined that Brian's life could have ended at such a young age.  Kristina, please continue to bring the girls by at Christmas and knock on our front door so we can share stories about Brian and hopefully lighten your heart.

Brian was a great guy. Enjoyed going horseback riding & four wheeling with Brian & friends. He will be missed. Prayers for his wife & daughters.

Such a great person who made everyone feel comfortable. Thoughts for his wife and children.

So sorry for your loss. I knew Brian from coming into Chick-Fil-A and Biscuitville
He was a very sweet person and will be dearly missed

Our deepest sympathies extend to the family, and all those who had the blessing of knowing him.  Brian was a good friend in high school, and I know he was among the best of men.

We didn't know Brian and his family for very long, but he definitely was a very kind and warm person. Our girls are on the same gymnastics team and they were the first ones to welcome us to the team. We are completely shocked and sadden by his passing and our hearts and our prayers are with his wife and children.

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.  I am so sorry for your loss.

Brian made me laugh. 
Each time I saw him, he had a broad grin on his face that was absolutely infectious. It was impossible to be around him without sharing a smile. Over the past eight years, he outsmarted his UPS sensors often enough to enable us to watch Obama's inauguration, as well as the climax of every important UNC game playing on television when he was in the area. 
Our lunches, whenever possible, were a laugh fest and always included his latest photos of Kristy and the kids. He was so proud of his family. 
I think we were as excited about his degree as he was. I tried to talk him into going to law school, but he had so much to handle he didn't think he could invest the time. That's a shame, because with his people skills, he would have made a great attorney. 
Our neighbors, when informed, universally responded, Oh, no! Not that great guy.
 
That, alone, is a legacy of which to be proud.
I'll miss my friend very much.

My deepest condolences are with you during this time Kristy, Peyton, Bella, & the rest of the Bruce family. Brian was such a wonderful, hardworking man with a such a positive demeanor. It was easily seen that he was a loving husband and father. He will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.  Kristy, I'm here for you & the girls if you ever need anything!

So sorry to hear about Brian,we will be praying for the family.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.


To the entire Bruce Family our Deepest Sympathy.  Brian has always been special to us as our UPS driver from the first time we met him in 1995 until just a few months ago when he changed his route.  He became a friend who you always looked forward to seeing. Peyton and Bella can always be proud of their dad who had honor, trust, loyalty and a deep love of family. He was very special.

Brian always loved life and he showed it when ever he stopped by with our delivery.  He always had something good to say to cheer me up. He loved his family so much. I am sure that they will miss him as much as I will.

So very sorry to hear the news of Brian's passing. He was a wonderful person and always had a smile on his face when he delivered packages to our church. We will be praying for his family.
