Learning of Bruce's passing was heart breaking. Bruce wasn't

just our financial advisor for 23 years but also a fun, kind and generous

friend. Dear Ann, We hope you are finding strength in your family

and the love of your friends. Sending our heartfelt condolences to

all. We will miss him terribly.

Bruce was my family’s financial advisor for the last 20 years. He was very involved with my family’s planning for the future. His whole approach to planning was based on his understanding of us which he made sure he knew thoroughly. I will miss him.

There are so many memories we have a hard time selecting a few to share. Burce was known for his pants - whether it’s pant with holes from his tripping. He ALWAYS made us laugh. The best was his telling a story and he’d give a belly laugh before he finished the story. We all became hysterical before he finished watching him laugh at his own jokes. We had so much fun on the vacations in the Caribbean! Sailing trips, barefoot basketball, screen doors and locked out cars, and scuba diving in Barbados to name a few. He wanted his friends to share in his vision - plastic coffins, oil wells, and other ventures. He always had driving ambitions to make things better. He fkept us on track with flip charts and agendas.

We love him and always will.

Life will never be the same without my cheerful, dynamic and fun loving friend Bruce

Knowing Bruce before kindergarten,he always had a story to tell no matter what the topic

of conversation, but to me Bruce’s most endearing quality was when we gave our point of view he always said

“ I UNDERSTAND”. Bruce, Susan and I will miss you so very much, but we will try to keep

Ann in good spirits. Rest In Peace. Bogey (Mr. BOGORAD).

I met Bruce almost 46 years ago in the maternity ward at Perth Amboy General Hospital. He had just become the father of Casey and I had just become the father of my daughter Lauren (both girls born on the same day and they are lifelong friends).

Bruce and I bonded immediately (no surprise as Bruce bonded with everybody). We were both CPAs, we both commuted to NYC, we both played golf (Bruce was a great golfer and I always marveled at the way he got out of trouble on the golf course), and of course we both had more than a passing interest in the Stock Market. I even bought a tax shelter from him when he had dreams of becoming an oil tycoon. It was called Happy Top drilling.

We always had a fun time together. He was a great guy and Arlene and I will miss him.

There are so many words to describe Bruce. Generous, kind, and smart are just a few but the two I think of most when remembering Bruce are fun and funny. He ALWAYS made me laugh and he was ALWAYS fun. Steve and I had such good times with him no matter where we were including Las Vegas, Hilton Head or on a Broadway cruise. On the Broadway cruises he wouldn’t necessarily want to participate in learning the routines but being the good sport he was he would always try.

So many times when we were with him he would make us laugh until we cried. Now we’re crying with sadness without you.

Rest In Peace our dear friend. You’ll be in our hearts forever.

Much love,

Susan and Steve

May his memories be a blessing. Wishing you all great strength during this difficult time. Love The Bernsteins
