Title: We lost another
Post by: robo on February 03, 2014, 09:41:44 pm
It is with a heavy heart that I have to relay the passing of Bruce Hanson.   Bruce was a commercial beekeeper that managed 3-4000 hives between Texas and South Dakota.   Bruce went by the name of redbee online and was a friend to many.  He will be missed.  Prayers to his family.

It was sad to hear, Rob. Here is the only pic I have of him. You can't really see him, but he is the big guy sitting at the porch post.

I believe so, and it might look someplace like this if they are.  ;)
Makes you want to just stop for a while.

He was so genuine and sweet.  I remember he messaged me about something I had asked out of the blue! I never even talked to him before.  I got to meet him at bud's , what a hoot the 2 of  them were.  Sure is sad.

Hearts and prayers to his family and friends.  I know a soul as sweet as his will be doing fine in whatever comes next.

love,
