Dear Maureen and family
We were so sorry to read of Bruce´s passing.
We will remember him forever - he loved to have a yarn around the cattle pens at any show ground.
He will be at peace now and no more suffering. A wonderful man who didn´t deserve to suffer.
Thinking of you all and please accept our Deepest Sympathy.
Kindest Regards
Merv & Barbara Hann

In my career I have dealt with several hundred rural people.. and amongst them a few special rural people.
Bruce was one of those...a gentleman, a stockman and a "people person" who always had a genuine interest in others.
Privledged to have been involved with Bruce and the Fisher family.
