Dear Fellow Rotarians,
It is with great sadness that I write to inform you that our dear friend and fellow Rotarian Bruce died this afternoon. (30th July)
Bruce went downhill very quickly, but was not in pain and passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family.
This news will be a shock and very upsetting for you, I know. Bruce, as well as being a President on more than one occasion, was a very active member of the club over many years; his zest for life and energy were at the very heart of our Club.
Bruce was a dear friend to many of us and always willing to lend his support and guidance to help others. He will be missed enormously by all who had the good fortune to know him.
Kathy is currently with family members and we have offered support and condolences.
It would be wholly inappropriate to hold a discussion about the Club’s future tomorrow so lunch will be a time to come together to discuss how we might best remember Bruce and support his family.
I am sorry to be the bearer of such terrible news and know that Bruce and his family will be in your thoughts and prayers.
Yours in Rotary,
Jay
