It is with sadness that I read of the passing of Bruce. Bruce as Engineering Audit Manager in Kingston hired me. I have fond memories of Bruce. Like the time he came to Ottawa to talk to me about an advancement. The bad news was I had to transfer to Toronto. But, he came to deliver that message in person. Having moved back to London myself I have wondered where and how was Bruce keeping. He will be missed. I will pass the news of his passing on to another in Kingston who worked for Bruce.

I will always have fond memories of our times in Myrtle Beach with Bruce and Fran. Our golf games while the girls went shopping, our happy hours before supper, Bruce's love of oysters in Murrells Inlet, Thanksgiving suppers at the K& W restaurant. I didn't get to see him very often in recent years but I often thought of him. He was a great friend and will be missed.
Our deepest sympathy

It was a pleasure to care for Mr. McKay at PeopleCare. He had a warm sense of humour and a great love for his family. His whole face lit up at the mention of his beloved wife, Fran. There was a deep and abiding love between them that nothing can separate. May all of you find peace and comfort.

So sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. Worked for Bruce when he was in Kingston and I transferred from Construction (Eastern Region) to Engineering Audit.
I always respected him and considered him a gentleman to work for.
I'm sure his family will miss him dearly.

Sincere condolences to Fran and the family.
Bruce was a true gentleman , and a great guy to work with. Bruce contributed much, to the success of the Credit Union in Kingston. He stayed in touch with Kingston, and occasionaly
called me when we were organizing the QCC golf day, wanting to be informed of local events and fellow workers.
