How did you meet Bruce?

I met Bruce through my eldest sister Donna, he was a cool brother to have as a teenager. He would use her good platters to make us nachos! And then tell me "don't tell her chickadee, she's gonna be pissed!" Lol!! I would say " I won't." He introduced me to the movie Pulp Fiction, and would blaze and then play Saga with me.. lol! Bruce would always be laying out in the sun all red! Come in all blistered up!! Omg!! He was cool! I will miss you brother! May you rest in peace. Dawn Leyva
