We were cousins, once removed. My grandmother, Hildred Bolivar was Bruce's aunt (sister to his father, Walter) and my Dad and Bruce were cousins. In the past few years, I had the pleasure to visit with Bruce in Dayspring on a couple of occasions. One of the visits was to pick up several Bolivar cutters to bring back for my rug hooking group in Barrie, Ontario. A year later, my sister and I stopped in to visit him. He shared family stories and took us on a Cemetery tour of passed family members. His community, friends, neighbors and family will miss him. As will rug hookers all over that use the Bolivar Cutter.
