Sending lots of love at this sad time to Karyn, Bruce and all extended family xx Unfortunately I couldn’t make the funeral, Such a beautiful eulogy. As a family we visited yours a lot at your Eltham family home, Many visits to your camping and then Cabin at Urenui beach. Where there was Allan there was Alison, a devoted family man! Special people leave a lasting memory and he was one! I can’t thank him enough for understanding how important it was that my daughter had her Grandmother at her wedding - after his cancer he so stepped up and brought his sister to Aussie to make that happen. Take care all xx

Our condolences to Bruce and Karyn and their families Allan will be sadly missed as he has been a great asset to our workshop team, always coming up with new designs he had got from utube, his whistle when explaining something complex that none of the rest of us understood All the best to you all Neil, Ian, Graham,Phil,Noel and david

My deepest sympathy to Karyn Bruce and families Sorry I couldn't be there in person but great to have spent some time with him in February 2026, he was very accepting of what was coming and brave in facing his fate.

My condolences for your loss. Sorry I couldn't be there in person. Allan was a great man

Allan was a sweet, lovely man who was always a pleasure to chat with whenever I came round to clean his home. I met him and Alison through Karyn back in 2019. May you rest in peace and be reunited with your loved ones who passed. Always in my heart. Xx
