Bruce Del Porte Obituary

I remember our last times together. After 3 years of retirement, Bruce asked me to help him at Allied Signal for 6 months. It wound up being for two and a half years, but it was a fun job. I again realized Bruce's great talents. We even discovered the LaFayette Brew Pub together. I only saw Bruce a few times after the Allied Signal project, but I still have fond memories. When us old Westinghouse guys get together we still recall Bruce stores.
Still miss you Bruce.

I have fond memories of Bruce from our days at Westinghouse and Allied Signal., also our time doing audits of brewpubs. Still miss you. I will always remember you

He was a bonafide rocket scientist. He was a great teacher of life. He lived his bucket list for the past fifty years... he was the one who took the brunt of our parents' mistakes in their early parenting career... He knew how to eat and drink... he was loved and loved. He was an enigma and spent much of his life living a classified life... He drove a corvette, lived in new york city, wore loose shoes and loved the prurient as well as the classics. He was someone to look up to as well as allowed you to shine. He knew math like very few. He animated movies and read and read... There was little he couldn't hold his own on... except melanoma... read the comments. they are telling. Thanks Bruce!

Happy Birthday brother. We miss you. Rest in peace.

I met Bruce when he first started working in the Failure Analysis Lab at Westinghouse. He was always fun to be around and had a great sense of humor. I was sorry to hear about his passing.

I will always remember Bruce as a person who kept a sense of proportion. His office at Westinghouse had a Bart Simpson poster saying "Don't have a cow, man." I will always remember him as someone of unfailing good cheer and someone who knew not to sweat the small stuff.

Though it has been many years, I have fond memories of the good times I shared with Bruce both on a personal and professional level. He was my mentor very early in my career and I learned much from him. He taught me the 4 most important words to use on a business trip; "I'll have the lobster!" Good 'ol Brucey. You will be missed.

We will miss you Bruce. You were an amazing and smart man and a great friend.

I have lost a great friend. Bruce worked for me at Westinghouse and later I worked for him at Allied Signal. Through it all we remained great friends. I will always remember our "Staff meetings" at the Kings Head restaurant in Santa Monica.
Bruce will be missed.

Bruce, you were a great man, a fabulous boss, and a true friend during our 5 years together at Allied Signal. You were always "calm, cool, and collected"; even under the stress of supporting deliveries for the International Space Station Program. Those 5 years were not only the most professionally rewarding, but also the most fun of my career. We sure new how to travel then; safe journey now! Thanks for the memories!

Bruce, your presence will be missed. As your old friends and colleagues talk about you, they have only wonderful words of compassion, generosity, and praise. You touched us all during your life and we are better for it.
