Dear Hansen Family,
I knew Bruce as one of my lighting reps for a very long time, at least 18 years for me. I was so deeply saddened to hear about his passing from this earth. I did not know the struggles he had with his health, so my memories of him are of a funny, joking, helpful, professional, caring and loving friend. All of his hard work and efforts in the lighting world did not go unnoticed. Living in Portland, I was unable to attend today, but I am sending you all of my love and respect for dear Bruce. He was a great man and I will miss him.

I grew up just a couple of houses up the street on Celeste Way.  I always said what a Celestial place we got to live.  Lots of good neighbors and friends.  I am saddened to hear of Bruce's passing and wished I knew how to get hold of Christi to just let her know I'm thinking of her today and missing the Hansen's, those that have gone before Bruce and the family that will be missing their dad, uncle, brother and grandpa!!  I know he will be close by always!

One of my lives most tender moments took place as I was on my to Bruce's home to express my love and concerns for one of his first open heart surgeries........Marilyn and I had just the day before lost our daughter Jenni in an auto accident.  As I was driving up our driveway Bruce was coming down......His mission was to express his love and concern for our loss..few words were spoken, many tears were shed.  This brief moment was a reflection of the Bruce we all have loved and will miss till we meet again.                       Lawry and Marilyn Hunsaker

I express my deepest sympathy to Christi and Bruce's family.  I was one of the 4 B's...Brent, Buie, Baich and Bruce that lived on the same street.  We played a lot of basketball and with the Hansen's enjoyed water sports.  Super neighbors, super people, super person.

To the Hansen family,
I will always remember Bruce for his great smile and the constant twinkle in his eyes.
He was a prince of a guy. RIP Bruce

Phil, You have been loved by us since you took your walk following in your dad's footsteps at Skyline High.  Now, his memory lives on through you.  Although, your dad's footsteps have stopped our love for you continues on...Toni and Terry Cook

It was a pleasure to have known Bruce. I work for Lighting Design and he was our REP.
He was so kind to us and took great care of our showroom. I will miss him dearly.

Bruce was always so welcoming and kind, and always up for a good laugh. He raised some incredible children and will be missed. Our thoughts are with the Hansen's during this time.

I am so sorry to hear of Bruce's passing.  I have always thought of the Hansen family like an extension of the Strong's, with only brick and mortar between us. With much love-- Danny

I just met Bruce a few years ago.  He was very a kind and gentle man.  We spent some quality time together with the Sandy and Aaron and I am so grateful to have known him.  Bruce talked often of his family and I know how much they meant to him.  He will be in our thoughts and prayers and greatly missed.

Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you all at this very difficult time.  Bruce wasnt just one of my reps, Bruce was also a good friend.  I will never forget him.  May the beautiful memories you have of your father/grandfather help to sustain you and give you the strength to get through the days, months and year ahead.  Be strong.  Bruce - you are now at Peace.  I miss you.

We were sadden to hear of Bruce's passing. We worked with Bruce for over 20 years. He was a wonderful,dedicated rep.  He was an inspiration to us. Please accept our deepest sympathies!  

With fond memories,
Chris and Steve Ogrodowski

Bruce and Greg were my cousins. We all went to school together. His mother, Wlma, was one of my mom's favorite cousins. We all stayed in East Millcreek and my daughter had the fun of knowing Bruce's son, Marc ...keeping the Keller family connection going. His passing saddens me. I send love to the whole family.

Phil,
 Sending you and Mauri our love. We are so very sorry for your loss. 
Paul and Melanie Lyon

Bruce and Greg and their family was one of the first families that I met when we moved into the East Mill Creek 3rd Ward.  I'm grateful for etermal relationships and cherish the ones that I have; Bruce is one of them!
Love,
Lew

I will always remember wonderful times, old cars, road shows and good friends! Bruce was always kind and sweet! Great memories shadowed by his passing.

I worked with and had the pleasure of knowing Bruce for 12 years. I love him so much and he will be sorely missed. He has had such a huge influence on my life and I am forever grateful for his friendship.

Most all of my childhood memories include my cousins Greg, Bruce and Christi along with my brothers Bradley and Alan, we were the 6 kids the nurse at Dr. Neff's office hated to see coming, we were the 'angels' our dear sweet Grandma Keller always defended to our Mom's! "Those kids can do whatever they want to at Grandma's house!"  We had fun skiing (water and snow) together. Lot's of Tuesday nights after work KFC and waterskiing at Rockport, lot's of Saturday's at Brighton or Alta! Bruce, you are loved more than you know and missed even more. LOVE YOU 'MOOSE'!
Edie

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm shocked and saddened to see this.

Very sorry to hear of your passing. I was a home teacher to the Hansen family back in the day when the kids were little. I remember Bruce's father telling us in Sunday school about his mission to Scotland. May your family be comforted by the love of our Heavenly Father at this difficult time.
