In Celebration of

Angus James (Jamie) Bruce

November 11, 2020


It is with heavy hearts we announce Jamie’s sudden passing on November 11, 2020 from complications of cancer. Jamie was the beloved husband and partner of Edith Ellen (née Hall) for 33 years and the proud father of Kiara and Cameron. He is survived by his sister Marion (Tammy) Bruce (Barrie Teece). Predeceased by his parents Angus and Gertrude Bruce (née Marion).

A talented designer, Jamie enjoyed working with his hands. He loved the outdoors and spent much time skiing, mountain biking, camping and building nature trails. He enjoyed sharing adventures with family and will always be remembered for his smile, sense of humour, and for being a loving, supportive, and generous husband and father.

Cremation has taken place and a celebration of life will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to a favorite charity or to one of ours, Crohn’s and Colitis Canada.

Sorry to read of Jamie’s death. I met Jamie in 1980 in the first year of the industrial design program at Carleton where we were both in the engineering stream. Jamie was a good guy. Very quiet and courteous. He often hung out with another student, Rod Muir. A year ago I ran into him in the cycling area at Mountain Equipment Co-op. I knew instantly he looked familiar and then it clicked. We spoke briefly, recalling first year at Carleton 39 years prior. I noticed that Jamie was one month older than me. Sorry for your loss.
