So sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. His sharp mind, eloquent turn of phrase, sense of humour, joie de vivre and plain old highland- Scot feistiness will all be sorely missed. We cherish the memory of many, many wonderful hours spent in his company.
Bruce, we know you've passed and will be back soon. You've been such an incredible friend. Dear soul that you are. We'll look for you. All our love, Paul and Nicole
Even tho' I never had the opportunity to meet Bruce in person I am so grateful that our paths crossed -- via email and snail mail. Bruce was so kind and thoughtful . He was so passionate with his work and so thorough making everyone feel special and worthy. Thankyou Bruce--and when i look at the stars i will think of you..... deb
A great friend of many, many years has left us. Bruce has been a special person in my life. I will miss his wonderful friendship, his wisdom, his laugh, his humour and his sage advice. His passing is a great loss for me personally and for our family.
My dearest Bruce, you are free now to share your most amazing and beautiful spirit with all of us. You will strengthen us, give us hope, and share in our laughter and joy. It is time now for you to play your greatest role...in helping humanity rise to the next level. We will feel you so strongly in this great endeavor. Let's join hands to soar and do this together. Thank you, Emily, for sharing this love of your life with us. He always spoke so touchingly of his deep love for you. It was and still is a great inspiration. Love to you, too, dear soul. Embracing you, Nicole
My Dear Bruce, we met 28 years and remained good friends until the day you passed. Thank you for being there for me when I needed someone to talk to in my good and sad times. You were an incredible inspiration in my life. And by the way, you were always correct with astrological predicts. Thank you.. May you rest in Peace. Your Principessa.

Sadly, Bruce and I never 'met'. He saw me onstage and contacted me by email to share some insights with me. Was I in for a treat! We emailed back and forth over these last few years and I am in awe of the talent of the man, and of the heart. My deepest sympathies are extended to Emily and Bruce's entire family. He will be remembered fondly.
Such a kind hearted and warm individual. He will be missed. My condolences to his family. He has helped me more than he will ever know.
My dearest condolences to Bruce's family. I never met Bruce in person but felt connected to him through the personal reading and emails that we shared. His insight took my breath away many times over. Rest in peace.
Dearest A-D Bruce, I will a;ways hear your voice and feel your love sending support to me in everything I do. You helped and healed so many people, many of whom did not know they were benefiting from your insight. I am privileged to be one of them. You were like a beautiful pebble of light dropped into the pond of the world. Your caring ripples out through all of us to make the Universe a better place. Rest now knowing that you gave your best to all of us. Much love, Carletta
