transitioned on Tuesday, June 27, 2017. In addition to his parents,
Bruce was preceded in death by his sister, Kathy M. Beasley, his
nephew, Travis I. Beasley and his father-in-law, William J. Brooks.

grandfather, who enjoyed playing the drums, singing and praising
the Lord. As a child, he attended Bethlehem Temple Holiness
Church. He was attending Refuge Church of Troutman, NC under
the leadership of Pastor Gerry Clarke, at the time of his death. He
was a construction worker and truck driver for many years. Bruce
was a strong man that let nothing stop him. Bruce was a walking
miracle. No matter how he felt or how his day was going, he had a
smile on his face. He never met a stranger. He was known at dialysis
as a gentle giant. Bruce was a man that always encouraged others, he
always lent a helping hand. His grandchildren remember him as a
strong, gentle man, who cared for them, watched over them and
protected them. They always went to him for advice; even when he
said "no", he had their best interest at heart.
