BARTLETT, Allan “Bruce” – Passed away peacefully at South Muskoka Memorial Hospital, on Thursday, June 10, 2021, at the age of 84. Bruce was the beloved husband of 38 years to Bonnie Bartlett (nee Yearley) of Bracebridge.

Bruce was born on July 28th, 1936 in Corner Brook, Newfoundland. At age 10 he journeyed by boat with his mother and sister, Carole, to Toronto, ON, where his father had already found a home. His early years were spent playing chess, boxing, and having a wide variety of jobs, his favorites being in computer sales and hotel ownership. In the early 90’s, Bruce and Bonnie decided to move to Bracebridge, ON, to have a better environment to raise their daughter Kristi.
