I will forever miss my cousin Bruce. He was a wonderful person and loved everyone he came in touch with. I will always remember his love of golf and all things sports. Hugs to all of his family during these troubled times. The Ulrich clan wishes you all the best!

It’s funny, when someone goes beyond our reach, we realize the missed opportunities to be with them. We learn again, life is short, share, love, reflect.
Laura Huber says:
I will forever miss my Great Uncle Bruce. The odd hours of the night playing cards on Christmas Eve. He taught me all the tips and tricks in playing Wrap Poker. Mille Bornes and being overall the most funny person I have ever met. He would talk to me about our Soap Opera Bold and The Beautiful. We spent hours talking about my issues from anxiety and especially boyfriends… He always knew what to say. He had a few talents that I wished I could’ve seen. Drumming stories my mom told me about. And his insane talent of writing poems about my love life just to cheer me up. He hated to be beat in poker especially when he was the one to teacher Raymond, I and Natalie how to burn him with a Straight Flush. Or if im missing a card he called me the Huber Straight. I had many amazing memories with Bruce and I can’t imagine how next Christmas will be without him. I love you Bruce and you will forever be missed. 😥
Father Jim Fosdick says:

Elizabeth Spencer says:
Thank you Father Jim! Much appreciated.
