Bruce grew up in El Dorado , AR. He is a graduate of Castle Heights Military Academy and the University of Arkansas – Fayetteville and was a member of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

Coming from the large family that created what is now Anthony Forest Products; Bruce spent most of his working years in the timber and wood products business. He began his career in the family business then branched out to operate his own sawmill. His career allowed him to visit many parts of the U.S. but the last working years were in and around Hot Springs , AR

Bruce loved the outdoors. He learned to hunt and fish as a young man and had many happy memories of those days on a lake with “Daddy Frank” or in the deer woods or duck blinds with his cousins and later his children. His love of those outdoors activities and later gardening continued throughout his life.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, September 12, 2009 at 2 p.m. in Westover Hills Presbyterian Church in Little Rock, AR. Interment will be in Dollarhide Cemetery in Foreman, AR

In lieu of flowers, Bruce asked that memorial gifts be made to Westover Hills Presbyterian Church, 6400 Richard B. Hardie Drive, Little Rock, AR 72207 or Winthrop P Rockefeller Cancer Institute Foundation Fund, 4301 West Markham #623F, Little Rock, AR 72205 and specify liver cancer research.
