Bruce was a loving husband, Dad, Doodie, Papa and Brother. Bruce and Karen were married 14 years and they loved to travel, visit wineries, go on day trips, try new restaurants and spend time with their friends and family. He loved Purdue University and could be found wearing Purdue gear almost daily. To say he was a Purdue fan is an understatement!
