We watched Bruce's three children grow up on Bonaventure Street and the Lerner family were wonderful neighbours.
We were shocked to hear the sad news, Bruce will be missed by all.

My deepest sympathies to the family. Bruce always had a joke to tell or advice to give me at the bridge table.  It was a pleasure to take a top from him. He will be missed. Wish we could have a redeal. Rip

We will really miss Bruce at the lake. How he loved heading straight for the dock, casting his fishing rod, settling down in his chair with a good book and waiting patiently and hopefully to catch a fish! Thanks to Bruce, we got to eat some of that trout!It will probably take a while before we get used to going down to our dock and not to expect to see him by the lake. Our deepest condolences....

Our deepest condolences to Bruce's family. We have many great memories from the curling rink with Bruce. It didn't matter how big the moment or how important the game his final words before heading down the ice were "have fun!". It helped put things into perspective for someone who tended to get a little intense on the ice. Brucie, I have never forgotten that and try to use that motto in my curling games today. RIP friend. We will miss you.

We are all very saddened to hear of Bruce's passing. Our whole family played sports together with Bruce back in the Westmount Park days. RIP good buddy.
The Sherriffs family of Westmount

To  Brice's family and friends, please accept my heartfelt condolences. Bruce was a special guy who always made me feel good. I have so many fond memories of Bruce ; playing softball in Westmount Park, enjoying a game of heart at his parents' house on Grey Avenue, winning the chariot race for Theta Sigma at the Loyola Winter Carnival, and so many more.  Bruce was a great friend.

My deepest condolences to Greg, Shannon, Jeff and Linda. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. He was a great man, and I'll always remember his warm personality and great sense of humor.

Bruce's passing was a great shock to me, I enjoyed our short meetings together as I have been involved with him and Kerstin as their Immigration Consultant. They were looking forward to a long life together. Kerstin; my thoughts are with you and do not worry about your future I will help you. Sincerely

We worked in the same building.

My deepest sympathies to you all.  Bruce was a respected Alumni Advisor when I was active in Theta Sigma fraternity at Concordia and his contributions were always well-appreciated.

Condolences to the Lerner family. Bruce sure could make me laugh! A real loss to Montreal curling.

Sorry to hear of Bruce's passing we knew Bruce at the St. Laurent curling club in the mid 70's.  A great and fun person. He will always be remembered in our hearts. Sympathies to the Lerner family from Karen Martel and Raymond Gauvin. we are in Maine so won't be able to attend the funeral.

Our deepest sympathies to Kerstin and family.  We will miss him at the curling club.  His leadership and support for Kurling for Kids will also be greatly missed.

Lou and I were shocked to hear of the sudden passing of Bruce  we played many bridge games against him and he was always fun at the table,a great sport and always a true gentleman. Our thoughts go out to his family and especially to Josyln at this very sad time. We are thinking of you.  Diane Gormley & Lou MacNeil

Sad to learn of Bruce's passing. Our condoleances and best wishes to the  family & loved ones, Don & Chris Carroll

I am deeply saddened by Bruce's passing.  He was a supplier and friend when I worked at ICN Canada and Valeant Canada for over 20 years.  He would drop in just to say hi.  He always kept his customers on a personal level.  I know he had a heart attack several years ago but he was doing so well with the weight loss and he quit smoking.  Oh Bruce, I am going to miss you. You will be forever in our hearts.
