Default A memory

Shortly after I got married my wife and I met Bruce and his wife at the Pier in NYC to see a Diana Ross concert. After the concert we went for a bite at a local diner. I remember vividly Bruce recounting how he came to acquire his Boston Garter Mathewson. He told the story with such passion that my wife became mesmorized. After we had parted company she commented that before tonight she never thought there could exist someone as obsessed as I about the hobby, but after meeting Bruce she realized that there was at least one other. To this day I'm not sure she meant that as a complement to either Bruce or me, but it is a memory I will always cherish.

My condolences to Bruce's family and friends.

I did not know Bruce personally, but the loss of any board member is a sad day.

One thing I can say for certain, is that when the physical dies, the soul does not. His journey has just begun.

Thank you Bruce, for giving us one of the funniest threads I've ever read on this board.

Sincerely, Clayton

No man is ever forgotten when he has friends. R.I.P. Bruce
