BRUCE IRVIN DOERKSEN
Bruce Irvin Doerksen was born December 22, 1954 to Abe and Mary Doerksen of Clearbrook, B.C. While on his way to work on February 3 an automobile accident claimed his life.
Bruce was a cheerful and loving boy who loved sports and the out-of-doors. One of his favorite songs was "Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine. Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine."
He leaves to mourn his sudden passing his parents, Abe and Mary Doerksen; five brothers, Chester, Dennis, Lawrence, Mark and Jimmy; his twin sister, Beverly; two sisters-in-law; one brother-in-law; and many friends. The Doerksen family finds comfort in the words of John 13:7
