The majority of his life, he was self-employed in the area. One of his favorites was when he owned and operated Lewis’ Bar and Grill in Barnesville. Following that, he worked in Texas for several years. Bruce’s world revolved around his daughter, Jamie. Bruce’s pride and joy was not only Jamie, but also his grandsons Cole and Carter. He was especially proud to be with Cole when he shot his first deer and with Carter when he caught his first fish. Bruce will be remembered for his love of hunting and fishing. He also enjoyed being at the lake and a good game of cards.

He is survived by his wife Sharon, daughter Jamie Swenson, grandsons Cole and Carter Swenson, mother Evelyn Lewis, brother Roger “Neak” (Kathy McLaughlin) Lewis, sister Judy (Wayne) Bjerketvedt, all of Barnesville, and nephew Evan Lewis, Devils Lake, ND.

Bruce was preceded in death by his father Edward, brother Keith, and father-in-law Wade Farsdale.
