Bruce retired from Neighbourhood Legal Services in 2011 after suffering a stroke. He truly loved being a lawyer helping people with disabilities live their lives with dignity. Bruce was a gifted listener. He enjoyed his travel adventures with Carol, Tai Chi, Tiley hats, cheering for Team Canada, the Blue Jays and Maple Leafs. Thanks to Anne S. & Lois W. for starting a programme which gave his retired life much meaning. A special thanks to the PSWs who came into our home to give him care these last 6 years.
