Inscription.
Bruce was here not by chance but by God's choosing. God's hand formed him and made him the person we know:

Child of God, Husband, Father, Physician, Surgeon, Obstetrician at the birth of more than 9000 souls, Crusader in the fight against cancer, Christian teacher, Rotarian, Blue Lodge and Scottish Rite Mason and Shriner, Boy Scout counselor, Patron of the Arts, World traveler, Fun loving Friend

God allowed Bruce to be here at this time in history to fulfill God's special purpose.

to show that God's grace is sufficient for every need and that life is to be lived abundantly with zest, purpose, and joy.

Thanks be to God! in loving memory of our lives together

By your wife, Betty, our sons John and Jim our daughters Maryanne and Pat
