Bruce graduated from Pickens High School and West Georgia College. He was

painter. Bruce was a member of the Bent Tree Saddle Club. He could do and
fix just about anything. He was a wood-worker and made signs and just about
anything out of wood. He was very much against cutting down all our trees
and he got as many as he could that were down and had them cut into lumber.
Bruce was talented like his dad in every way, especially in construction and
wood-working. He built several houses and did lots of remodeling in the
area.
Bruce liked to hunt, fish, play tennis, ride horses and ride his
motorcycle. He liked having parties at the stables and visiting with his
many friends. He loved going to his cabin in the mountains, “Twin Chimneys,”
working and spending quiet time. Bruce also loved going to St. Croix where
he just recently bought some land and his dream was to retire there.
Bruce was married to his high school sweetheart, Martha, for almost 29
years. He enjoyed spending time with his daughter Jenna and his shadow
“Little Tom,” his beloved Jack Russell. They were inseparable. He liked
going to bluegrass music festivals with Martha and Jenna.
Survivors include his wife, Martha Prince, Jasper; mother, Lynda Prince,
Tate; daughter, Jenna Lee Prince, Jasper; brother, Shelton Prince,
Lawrenceville; and two sisters, Penny Davis and Peggy Prince, both of Tate.

UMC, 85 W Church St., Jasper.
Bruce will be missed by everyone who knew and loved him. He had too many
friends to count and touched by so many lives. There will be a void in
everyone’s heart that can never be filled. May you rest in peace, and don’t
worry about “Little Tom!”
