Dear Relatives and Friends,

 We have some bad news:  Bruce Gebhardt died of kidney failure on September 28. He died peacefully in his sleep.  Bruce was 66.

He was truly appreciative of, and moved by, all the support and assistance that so many people kindly and thoughtfully extended to him during his last few years.

Bruce’s funeral will be held this Saturday, October 1st.

Visitation:  10 am to 11 am.

Service:      11 am to 12 noon.   During the service, those who would like to  are invited to say a few words (or many words) about Bruce.

Lunch:        We invite attendees to lunch afterwards (place to be determined).

 John R. Freed Funeral Home,

124 N. Easton ROAD,

GlenSIDE,  PA 19038     (NOT Glendale, as was reported to some!)

 (215-884-1900)

You’ll find yourself on Easton Road if, from Bruce’s house on West Mt. Airy Ave, you continue north/east on East Mt. Airy Avenue (beyond where you cross Cheltenham Ave.).

 

In lieu of flowers, Bruce requested donations to

I just saw on FPN that Joe Cali passed away recently. So sad, as I saw him at the DC show last month!
My deepest sympathy to his loved ones.

A very tough loss for the pen world. Tom "Old Griz" was well known, and will be missed!
