@mod Please make it a stickied one.

Was lucky to skate a couple of
month regularly with Bruce.
He lights up everyone around him - and makes every session special and more fun.
This loss really hurts.
My thoughts are with his Family, in
particular with his sons.
You boys will read this I know that, you loose
the best rolemodel possible to become a incredible human beings.

Keep the Kelliher flame burning - I want to see you balling, skating, on the road living the best life.

If you drop you name in a skatepark all through Europe from Dublin to Munich from Antwerp to Malm�you can be sure to meet old farts who never forget and still love your father.

I knew Bruce slightly in the late 90s. He made an impression on me. For someone who was already a legend in Ireland he was completely without ego.

I was sad to see the post on Thrasher the other day, it’s fucking cruel, but it turned out he’d been exactly the same sane, centred character throughout and made many lives better.

Rest in power.

As a former resident in Ireland I met and skated with Bruce several times and I would like to say what a wonderful personality he had to back up his unique take on Skateboarding. Legends never die and Bruce " The Ox" lived up to that label without even knowing it such was his humbleness.
