On Labor Day, 9/5/16, God called home a very special saint. Bruce Isenhauer of Trinity was known for his deep passionate love of our Lord. It was evident in his faithful praying over Trinity.
His passing, at age 63 was so swift, it was a shock to us. Bruce was instantly killed in a head-on-collision in which he was the driver. The driver of the other car was also killed. But passengers, daughter and grand son were not injured.
Why Bruce? Why now? We will probably never know the answer to those questions? A wake up call? Saving Bruce from experiencing turmoil in our church and world? Don't know. Don't know the conversations he just had with family in the car. Bruce was almost a 24/7 conversationalist about his belief. As far as I know he never passed over an opportunity to speak of and for God.
He saw no boundaries in sharing. He often crossed over into "another's space" in his enthusiastic way of sharing. One of the phrases we often heard Bruce say was "God is good...God is good all the time"
Bruce will be deeply missed by many. Those who knew him well commented on their joy for Bruce to be in the presence of our LORD Jesus. But, also, spoke of the sorrow and sadness in his earthly absence. Until we meet again, dear brother (and thank you for serving Holy Communion to Charlie and me and others) the day before you left.
