A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, July 25, 2025, at 11:00 AM at the Taylor Funeral Home in Staples, MN, with visitation beginning one hour prior to the service.

Bruce was born on June 24, 1952, in St. Cloud, MN, to Norman and Evelyn (Anderson) Haber. He worked as a journeyman electrician throughout his entire career and was known for his strong work ethic and problem-solving skills.

Bruce will be deeply missed and fondly remembered for his kind heart, sense of humor, and love for life.

Arrangements are entrusted to Taylor Funeral Home, Staples.
