I knew Bruce when he lived in Durango, Colorado, I was only 15 at the time, but I used to take care of Bridget whenever Bruce and Fran had to work late. I played the drums and learned a lot from Bruce. We used to play together when he wasn’t working I was the one that brought Bridie down from Colorado when she was a youngster to see her grandmother in Port Arthur. My mom was from Sourlake and we used to visit here every summer. I ended up moving to Nederland after I got out of the service I was so sorry to hear about Bruce and my deepest condolences and prayers go out to you and your families.
