I am near to tears to learn about Bruce's death. He was a great friend to everyone on the Hill and it seems that everyone who knew him was a friend. He was always so happy to help; in fact, I remember his helping us by taking some pictures for our adoption letter so many years ago! I am so sad at his loss. Adele, our hearts go out to you.

If anyone has information on viewing/memorial service, can you please post it?

Bruce was an amazing community advocate in Capitol Hill and later in the H Street community. Our neighborhood owes so much to the steady work of Bruce and Adele over the past ten years.

Bruce and Adele have done so much for this community. They have been, for lack of a better term, model citizens.

This community is a much better place because of them.
