Cindy O'Neal Richmond

I first met Bruce many decades ago at Gary Elementary.  All during Gary, Hogg, REL years, Bruce sat directly behind me in many classes due to our last names/alphabetical order seating.  He was always kind, interested in his classmates, & was truly a dependable friend.  Since renewing our friendship years ago after he moved to Florida & computers were available, Bruce stayed in touch regularly both via email & written notes, cards.  He was an unusual, intelligent, sweet man who always thought more of others than himself & who always saw the positive, best in the rest of us.  Bruce will be missed.  I am thankful that he is free of pain & reunited with his beloved parents.

Carla is irreplaceable.  She was a treasured friend & will forever be missed.  Too many good memories & laughs to even start listing.

For Mike & anyone else who might wish to see her obituary:

Cook-Walden Funeral Home; Austin, TX

Obit is listed under Carla Jan Valadez

Susan, I am also glad we had that time with Sharon at your farm.  She was a great addition to our mini-girlfriends' reunion.  I have fond memories of her from Hogg and Robert E. Lee.  She left way too soon.  Her comment about Mimi dying too early became sadly ironic.  Sharon will be missed!
