Bruce and I worked in the same group at PPL. Bruce was quiet, and always pleasant. I liked his understated sense of humor.
He will be missed.

I had occasion to work with Bruce while he was at PPL. He was a fine man and I liked Bruce very much. I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to his family. He talked of them often and I know he cared greatly for them. He will live in your hearts always.

Although I didn't know him personally. My grandfather had Alzheimer's and I know first hand how this horrible disease affects the family members and the person who has contacted it. My prayers and thoughts go out to the family and friends of Bruce. He will long be remembered for his long battle and victory to date. Sincere Best Wishes to the Family and Friends!
From me and my family!

I worked in the same group as Bruce for many years. And while he and I never worked directly on projects, I really enjoyed his presence in our group. Like Lynn said above, he was quiet, always pleasant, professional in his job, and had a great sence of humor. It is a lesser world without him, as he will be missed by many.


Tom Widner    04-13-2008

I worked closely with Bruce at PPL for about six years, and he was one of the kindest, most dependable, and most conscientious men I have ever known. Teresa, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Tom, Kathy, Cristopher and Molly

I worked on many projects with Bruce over the years at PPL. I always appreciated his intelligent, friendly and professional attitude. Today, my thoughts are with his family.


Paul Capotosto    04-22-2008

I did not know Bruce real well but when our paths did cross he impressed me as a genuine, good hearted person. I always enjoyed visiting with him. He is definitely on my short list of nice guys.

I stumbled across this and am deeply saddened. Bruce and I were childhood friends having lived next door to each other in Mt Lebanon. We lost touch a long time ago and I was trying to find him through the power of the internet. My sincerest condolences to the family. Bruce was a terrific friend.
