When Bruce went to the hospital they told him he had cancer. They told him that he had one month to live if he didn’t take the treatment, eight months if he did. That was nearly two years ago.
After the doctors told him the news he kept working for another year. Retiring early was difficult for him. He sold his airplane and his work equipment. He told me it was harder selling his equipment than his plane. He and his wife still have the Harleys.
Four or five years after he graduated from high school he got a job doing what he loved, what he was good at, and where he could make a lot of money. Bruce spent his life as a drilling engineer and has traveled all over the world on account of his profession. Next month, he’ll be sixty years old. Merry Christmas, Bruce. It was great to see you.
