Born in Glace Bay, Bruce was the son of the late Ida (Anntok) and William Campbell.
Bruce enjoyed time with family and sports, primarily baseball and hockey. Bruce was an avid fan of the Montreal Canadians and San Francisco Giants. Bruce also throughly enjoyed travelling to watch his son play hockey. Bruce always dedicated his time to other people, most often through coaching or catching up at a local rink. Bruce spent the majority of his working career at BWXT Canada before moving back east to retire. Along with time at the rink, he always enjoyed family get togethers and spending special holidays surrounded by family and friends.

Bruce is also survived by his sister, Nellie (Butch) of Cambridge, Ontario; his brother, Bill (Betty) of Antigonish, Nova Scotia; mother-in-law, Shirley (late Allan Pethick) and the apple of his eye, his one granddaughter, Maisie.
