TJ was born May 25, 1942 and passed on May 23, 2021. He served 29 years in the AF, stationed at Nemours’s AF bases i.e., Lackland, TX, Eielson, AK, Osan, KO, Eglin FL and Scott IL. Where he retired, TJ had numerous awards and decorations to include a Meritorious Services Medal with 2 oak leaf clusters.
TJ is survived by his wife Hae Suk Bruce, son, Trelawny Jonathan Bruce, and daughters, Soo Lee Bruce-Smith and Louise Allen.
TJ was an outstanding PJ and leader, and he will be missed by those of us that knew him living by the motto, “These things we do so others may live”.
Condolences can be emailed to; Hae Suk Bruce, 1475 Harmony Hts Loop, Orofino ID 83544
Some of us did not know TJ or just met him in passing with a hand shake. Those that worked with and knew him hold him in high regard as a warrior PJ, who now joins the squadron of PJ Rescue Angels who have made their final jump.
When one of our PJ brothers passes he takes a piece of our hearts with him. It would be immensely appreciated if those who have stories would call the family at; 208-305-7653 with your remembrances:
John Pighini
Vice President, PJ Assn.
