We both got the chance to know Bruce but during different times. It was during the best years of Northern Electric (1963-1966) when my husband (Gord) played hockey with Bruce. I returned to Northern Telecom (1980)and it was during that time that I too met Bruce. Our hearts and prayers are sent to the McMeekin family during these difficult days ahead. Gord&Mearle Lee

Our paths crossed briefly (1963-66) when we played hockey together at Northern Electric. I played goal (badly) he played defence (superbly). I have often thought of him since then - his smile, his humour, his open and friendly personality. He made my world a better place. He will be missed.
