Bruce Elliott Thompson

I worked with Bruce from time to time on different projects on Post and he was one heck of a Carpenter. Bruce was a hard worker and a good man all the way around. It's sad he should pass so soon but we don't know when our name will be called up yonder. God Bless his family and relatives and help them heal from their loved one now missing from their family circle.

Bruce you left entirely too soon. It is very sad knowing we wont see each other again on this side of glory. The Lord graciously allowed me to see you at the end. Bruce was a special guy. I remember when Bruce arrived in 1945. Everyone was so happy to see him. We always enjoyed our times together with Lawrence and our other cousins playing at Aunt Garnets on holidays, and regular visits when we were young. Being with family was so natural as we were growing up. Ive known you all my life. I pray for strength for Bruces familys loss. Bruce worked hard for his family. Take comfort in all the years of memories. I have many family memories of him and I am truly going to really miss him. Your cousin, Joan (Light) McNey

So sorry to hear of the passing of Bruce. I worked with him at E/A-APG for 5 years & when I got there in 1983 he kind of took me "under his wings".He was a carpenter leader then, drove the rickety truck with me Mike Hardwick,Elmer Wymer,Gary Mills & Ernie Flynn holding on in the back! Coming from the outside I learned a lot from "Chili" (Never did find out where that nickname came from). He was a damn good carpenter & a decent guy! My sympathy goes out to the family.
