Bruce Conrad Obituary (1951

On December 26, 2020 Bruce Conrad left this world after a 30-year courageous journey with Parkinson's Disease to dance with the angels. He is survived by his siblings, Cindy Daugherty, Nancy (Donnie) Ragon & Tom (Karen) Conrad; nephews, Matthew (Katie) Daugherty, Nathan (Tess) Daugherty; niece, Laura Daugherty; grandniece, Vivian Daugherty; grandnephews, Ethan & Sawyer Daugherty ;Uncle, Dwain (Kathy) Foltz, and three cousins. Bruce was preceded in death by his parents, Harry & Eileen (Foltz) Conrad. Bruce was a gentle, quiet and thoughtful man. A man of few words, so when he spoke, you listened. Even on his bad days, he never complained or spoke an unkind word. He was small in stature, but mighty in strength and an agile athlete until his Parkinson's diagnosis. While working at Dumont Seed Company, a family owned business, as a young boy he could listen to an engine and determine the problem to fix it. He was detailed, meticulous, and could fix anything. When he graduated from college he traveled to Europe, studied the architecture, and stayed in hostels. We all knew we could call Bruce for any IT questions and he would have the answer. He read manuals for enjoyment! His mind was beautifully brilliant. He loved Jeopardy, chocolate covered pretzels, cookies and going out for ice cream. We will deeply miss his bright humor, compassion and smile, that could light up a room. Special thanks to the staff who cared for Bruce at the Greenview Inn and Chapel Hill Nursing Home. He was treated with dignity and loved by all. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a charity of your choice.
