I have great memories going to campmeeting with my grandmother Caroline Bruce while growing up in Roebuck SC. My daddy, Hub Bruce, loved to go "down the country" to visit everyone. Leclair and Catherine always welcomed us when we came to visit. We are saddened by your family's loss. We are all thinking about you during the time.
