Robin called me to tell me that she met with Bruce's children, Ellie & Jason, at Bruce's townhouse. His kids took all of Bruce's artwork & written material with them back to Atlanta where they live. They were not interested in any of his electronic gear. Robin did not mention anything about Bruce's vast collection of movie and TV DVDs.

Ellie & Jason also took the urn with Bruce's ashes with them. Robin said it was a very emotional time for all them, as you can well imagine.

I think of my friend every single day and miss him terribly. I miss our Friday & Saturday evening films, reading and contributing to this fantastic site, and speaking on the phone with Bruce.

I'll catch a movie and think, ah, this is one of the films we watched together. Read interesting news on and wish I had Bruce to share it with and discuss.

Bruce &I were only friends for about 5 or 6 years. But he was one of the best friends I've ever had in my life. If friends were made to order, I'd have ordered Bruce.

Thanks for the update, glad to see that his family is keeping his artwork.

If its not to personal, were you told how Bruce passed? Was it sudden? I Hope he did not suffer.

Again if its not our business I completely understand.

I never did receive an exact answer about Bruce's cause of death, Maurice. Possibly his blood sugar dropped (Bruce was Type II Diabetic) very low causing his heart to stop when according to his sister Robin. But I really never heard what the exact cause of death was based upon the medical examiner.

I hadn't asked. I think you were replying to Mach7.

I have a friend whose Type II Diabetes is complicating his other medical treatments since other medications he needs can mess with his blood sugar levels and put him at risk for a diabetic coma.

Scary stuff.

Thanks for the reply.

I have seen how fast diabetics can deteriorate if their blood sugar drops.

Very sad indeed.
