Condolence: The Obedience world has lost a very special person. It is hard to believe that he has left us so soon..
Seems like only yesterday we first met him at Bytown with his Goldens,putting them through their paces.
He truly loved this sport and it showed.

God speed Bruce... Im sure you are now training all the dogs up in heaven.
Ken & Sheila Hartley

Condolence: My condolences to the Gibbons family. I went to school with Bruce. I was the kid next door on Phesant St in Winnipeg. I was just in the process of looking him up on FB, when I found his obituary. Bruce and I were the best of friends back then, and sad to say we lost contact. Please once again accept my condolences, and know my thoughts are with all the family

Condolence: First of all, our sincerest sympathies to Bruce’s family and all those who were close to him. Warren and I knew him from the Obedience world, and will surely miss our many chats at the Trials we both attended over the past 15 or so years. He was very supportive of new competitors, a true sportsman whether he was winning or losing, and dedicated to furthering the sport of Obedience, by competing, teaching, judging and by willingly accepting board positions in the clubs. His dedication was a true passion, and he will be sorely missed.
RIP Bruce

Condolence: My condolences to all. Many years ago I took classes with him and although I did not have a Golden he was a very insightful and supportive instructor. I saw him judge numerous dog obedience trials and he was encouraging to many new comers to the sport. When he went into the ring with Rebel, Austin, or Bright all stopped to watch an impressive team in action. He will be greatly missed by so many.

Condolence: My thoughts and prayers to Brian's family.
His time dog training has been cut way to short
on earth but how happy he will be to be reunited with his
golden loved ones and how excited they will be to
see him!
So sad and sorry to see yet another legend leave us from the
Ottawa obedience world!
Carry on!!

Condolence: Everyone is shocked with the tragic news of Bruce's passing. I cannot imagine the grief Lillian and family must endure.....my deepest sympathy. Bruce and Rebel were very impressive and motivating for me in the 'old' days......and Bruce continued to motivate to the end through his judging, competing and helpful ways. Rest in peace....

Condolence: We are saddened by the loss of a truly kind man. Bruce was a bright spot at shows and we always looked forward to seeing him. A great friend to so many. Our heartfelt condolences to Bruce's family and friends.

Condolence: My heartfelt sympathies to Lillian and Bruce's family. From the first time I stepped into the obedience ring almost 20 years ago, Bruce was always kind and supportive. Watching him perform was such an inspiration. To the newcomer, he was patient and encouraging.

You will be missed.
