Bruce was born in Toronto, moved to Kitchener-Waterloo at age 2, where he met Moreen, settling in Welland following his tour of duty as a Flight Sergeant with the R.C.A.F. during World War ll from 1941 to 1945. Bruce was an insurance adjuster throughout Niagara, carrying on business as Easton-Crowther and Eastbrock Adjusters. Predeceased by his parents Oscar and Edna, his sister Doris, his parents-in-law Edward and Abigail and his brother-in-law Homer Opperthauser. A private family service and cremation will take place.
