May 28, 1942 - June 14, 2010

A memorial service was held Saturday, June 19, at Orient Drive Baptist Church. Private inurnment was to be held at a later date at River View Cemetery in Portland.

Bruce was born May 28, 1942, in Redding, Calif., to Raymond and Frances (Kritz) Bicknell. When he was a boy, the family moved to Portland.

Bruce loved spending time outdoors in his yard, and he was an avid boater. He was a member of the Columbia River Yacht Club and was commodore of the Trailer Sailors and vice-commodore of the Dolphin Yacht Club. He had a heart for animals, even rescuing them. Bruce enjoyed doing various types of construction projects, including sheds and garages. He also enjoyed playing with electric trains.
