Bruce was my good friend in High School years.
Fond memories of the years we shared hanging out.
Lots of laughs, fun times.

You were my brother and are deeply missed.

To the family of Bruce Mendelson,
I had fond memonies of Bruce when he was in Syracuse. He alwas had a smile on his face when he came into the hotel lobby to have coffee in the morning. He was fun to be around he will be miss. When your heart is empty, filling it with happy memories can help you find your smile.

I am so sad. Bruce certainly had a heart of gold.He will be missed. Rest in peace.

Rest In Peace, Bruce! You will surely be missed! Kathy and Monika from Atria South Setauket.

Although we only had a  handful of opportunities  to spend time with Bruce, we enjoyed all of them  and  found Bruce to be a very sweet and kind man. We enjoyed his sense of humor and he was a master at magic tricks. He was a very special person. May he rest in peace.

Love, Kira, Camden, Brook, Lauri and Mickey Weisz

That picture is exactly how I remember him.  Funny is an understatment. We, all the younger cousins, always looked forward to getting together with him.  Aunt Betty, Uncle Stanley, Bruce kept us laughing. I always hoped he would show up at a family gathering in my adult life.  That said, I'm so happy that I/we reconnected with Carry, Mindy, Ricky.  Would love to see the rest of the St. Thomas Clan. I just can't believe he is gone.  Makes me so sad, He is such a huge memory of my chilhood.  I always loved hearing "Brucey storied". 
"OHHHH, You have something on you shirt." woooops
You will be missed.

The laughs were some many and the memories abundant. He never failed to make me laugh. If I had to pick one memory to mention it would be the hot summer day when he showed up with an ice cream truck in our driveway. Cousin Brucie was a legend in his own time.

Caren and I are heart-broken on hearing the news of Bruce's passing.  I have many fond memories of him all of which bring smiles and laughter to me. We never really lose the people we love and Bruce will always be in my thoughts.  He leaves an indelible imprint in my memories because of his good-naturedness, friendship, humor, and love. Our sincere condolences go out to you, Ricki & Mark, and the entire family.

Dear Bruce,

You were funny and lovely and wise, and such an important part of our extended family. We shall miss you always. Rest in peace, dear Bruce.

Bruce left a impact on all of those around him. There was not a day that went by that Bruce was not cracking a joke .He was a pleasure to know. He will be missed greatly. He always talked about his neices and nephews. Proud of accomplishments that they had. He knew everyone in the neighborhood and would give you the coat off his back if needed. He will be missed by many! Rest In Peace Bruce! You left a hole in a lot of our hearts.

It is with great sorrow that we mourn the passing of Bruce.  I worked for the Mendelson family in the early seventies and have fond memories of Bruce.  He was alot of fun to work with.  May he rest in peace.
