How sorry I was to hear of the loss of a great Pentax Forum supporter, condolences to his family.

Colbyt · 04-24-2014, 06:15 PM

My thoughts and prayers go out to friends and family.

I find all the moderators here to be of tremendous help and support, and appreciate all the time they put into the forums. It is a big part of what makes this a special place, and at least for today, we've lost a small part of that. Goodbye Bruce.

We all have more than memories of Bruce left with us - we have the love, care & gentlemanly outlook he brought to our little Forum community. Surely by continuing in that manner we honor his spirit.

Via Con Dios Bruce.

Bruce had such a wonderful way with flowers, both cultivating and photographing. As a result of his work I see flowers in a whole different way. He was wonderfully supportive in the Singles Challenge and often helped identify flowers that I had posted.

Bruce was a very special guy and will be missed around here.

**sholtzma** · 04-24-2014, 09:06 PM

Oh, this is sad news. I remember reading his posts and appreciating his wisdom and good cheer. He will be missed greatly.
