On April 4, 1945 his unit liberated the Nazi Prison Camp at Ohrdruf, Germany. For many years he suffered the memories of those terrible years but in 2002 he began the first of several visits to former warzones of Europe and began to heal and find closure.
After the war, Bruce returned to Iowa and completed his undergraduate and dental education at the University of Iowa. He served as a family dentist in Manning, Iowa and in Cedar Rapids. Bruce enjoyed participating in the local, state, and national dental associations very much and remained active in the professional societies throughout his life.
Bruce was a member of Rotary and also the Grand Lodge of Iowa (Masons) in Manning and Cedar Rapids for over 50 years. He loved his community and was dedicated to his patients, his friends, and family.
Bruce loved spending time outdoors with his family. He raised his two sons on land where they raised goats, sheep, horses, and dogs, as well as hunting rabbits and deer. They built their own lake with a dock and later a cabin. Many joyful days were spent working at the lake and fishing with grandkids and friends.
Most important to Bruce were his wife, sons, and grandchildren. He was a devoted husband, loving father, grandfather, brother, and uncle.
We love you Bruce. You will be greatly missed.
