Bruce's (OLDFART) Funeral

[Two Smoker]

Great turn up... Im sure Bruce is proud of us...

[Rhino]

Hi Nodman,

As Scorpygirl said, we were proud to be part of the ride and Guard Of Honour. Thanks for the chance to speak ahead of you. I would have liked to have said more, but when I saw Scorpygirl loose it, that became too hard.

He was a great guy and is being toasted with a few (or more) glasses of vino tonight.

To Logan, thanks for notifying us initially. Bruce would have been proud of your quiet dignity today.

Keep the shiny side up, Rhino (Ulysses #3672)

[FROSTY:Me]

a pleasure to meet you scorpy and rhino.A great pity it wasn't under better circumstances.
From what I saw and heard today I wish I'd had the chance to get to know Bruce better.

[loosebruce]

Nice turn out today, i too wish i had known Bruce better, but in the time i knew him it was enough to know he was a great guy and a great friend/family member to all.
Still hard to understand, RIP Bruce. Nice speeches as well, well done to all of you involved.

Take care out there. my thoughts with you all.

[Kwaka-Kid]

Thanks everybody! and sorry i missed so many, checking the login book thingy afterwards made me realise just how many! i guess its the way with this

Thanks on Behalf of the family.

also from my nanna "for being such a nice bunch of bikers" and not wearing all our patches, carrying our beer in, and generally causing trouble, as apparently she thought they did :P

[FROSTY:Me]

inapropriate time to laugh But LMAO KK.
Im glad we put a new image of bikers in grammas head.

[crashe]

KK you made a wonderful speech today.... well done.
As did all the others that spoke (Nodman, Enigma, Rhino and Bruce's brothers).
It is very hard to stand up and say something at a funeral of someone that you love.

It was a very moving moment to be part of the 'guard of honour' today.

KK and Nodman, take care and always remember the good times that you shared with Bruce.
Smile or even have a cry, when you think of Bruce, let your emotions show thou....people won't mind.
Find a nice spot that you shared with Oldfart and chat to him .....He is listening to you no matter where you are.
KK, even thou your mum needs you at the moment, remember to take care of yourself as well.

only rode with him twice but it was good for me thank you to all that made me feel welcome there and to you nod man for opning your house to me i to have had a beer for the man
once again thank you all for making me fell welcome

[SPman]

I also only met Bruce 3 or 4 times, but he was someone who made an impression, a real nice chap and, watching him ride its still hard to understand how it all happened!
Tributes from Logo, Nodman and Enigma were particularly moving and drove home to us all the esteem in which he was held.
A sad way to meet others, a tragic loss to all those close to him, but, although he is gone, he will remain alive in the minds and memories of those who held him dear.
Once again our condolences to the family and Logo - you did well mate.

[thehollowmen]

Sorry to hear about this... is there anywhere we can send condolances cards to?

[Firefight]

what a lovely send off for a nice guy.

Great to see so many KB brothers and sisters there to offer support and pay respects.

To the people who got up and spoke, well done, its never easy to get up in front of people and share at a time like that, the two Logans, you have my utmost respect guys, you were strong, and spoke from the heart with maturity that could well have come from someone older and with more life experience under their belts.

Remember your KB mates will be there for you.

I felt honored to be there.
What an amazing guy Bruce was.
Well done KK, Enigma, Nodman and Rhino. It's not easy to get up and say a few words about someone who you care about, especial at their funeral. Your words about Bruce touched me deeply and made me regret not knowing him better while he was still alive.

I follow the theory you can usually judge a man by the company he keeps (applies to women too as it turns out)...

I think the funeral spoke volumes.

As did KK's nana...
