He had various jobs throughout his life.
One of his jobs was working as a civilian firefighter for the Yakima Firing Range.

In 1985 he left Kincaid Automotive and opened the Auto Specialty Center which installed and repaired air conditioning and cruise control systems.

Bruce was a bright light throughout his life and was a hero to us all for the way he faced all of his adversities.
He had a big heart, was easy to like, and was very loyal to his friends and family.
Bruce had time for everyone.
He liked to talk and always had many stories to tell.
Bruce was a huge WSU Cougar fan and collector of Star Trek memorabilia.
Near the end of his life, Bruce confessed his belief in Jesus Christ.
So, we can rest assured that he is now without pain and in the presence of God.
