Hello Everyone. This is Bruce's (aka Shen's) daughter, Robyn. I just wanted to tell you all that my mom and I have read each and every one of your comments on this thread. All of your stories and heartfelt wishes are bringing so much comfort to us during this dark time. I just can't even begin to tell you how much this means to us. Thank you all so much for contributing to my dad's joy over the years. I am glad that he was able to find friends out there that appreciated his wit and shared his interests. You all meant so much to him. He had told me on a number of occasions that you were all like family to him. You were his tribe. Thank you all so much for caring so much to preserve his work and his memory.

Hello Everyone. It's me again; daughter of his Excellency (a title by which he insisted that all of my friends call him). I wanted to let you all know that my mom and I are looking into keeping Shen's Angelfire webpage going as it is a wealth of knowledge and so special to many of you. Thank you all again and an extra special thanks to Bruv for taking over as Admin on this forum. My heart is full of gratitude.

I was thinking about the early days on EZBoard when I first encountered Shen, Parker, Henry, Andy62 and others. The topic of visualised resistance (VR) came up and a lot of guys on the boards started to give it a go. Somebody on one of Henry's boards came up with the idea of everyone contributing to a story about a VR deadlift(?) contest between Shen (Or the Mighty Shenandoah as he liked to refer to himself) and Andy62. The idea was somebody started the story anyone could come along and add their bit to the story. I think the setting may have ended up in Scotland at some Highland games? and there was a description of Andy62 struggling against an imaginary weight of hundreds of pounds and succeeding in lifting it while the crowd looked on in awe and then Shen coming along and imagining that he was lifting an even heavier weight. Shen was describing himself as some heroic figure like Hercules. This went on with each lifter imagining he was lifting heavier weights until I think Shen or maybe some completely new character may have turned up in the story and won the contest? It was about 20 years ago so I've forgotten the details. It was a laugh anyway, m8s.

I am not referring to Bruce with this but some of those guys on EZBoard (including myself), seem to have been Certifiable Loons. I am referring about those that have long been forgotten, and for good reason.

Even though I haven't written for years I feel like I lost a great friend. He was a training inspiration for me and the guy with the greatest sense of humour I 've ever met. RIP Shen. I will always remember you.

You have made many valuable contributions over the years. I have missed seeing you. I hope you come back more frequently, as I value your opinions and insights.

I am shocked and saddened to hear this news. I have been an inconsistent but long time visitor to this forum. I have found Bruce's advice and suggestions to be extremely helpful. I feel like I am losing an old friend.

We lost Macky and Bruce almost back to back. We miss them both.

I just learned of this very sad news. I'm at a loss for words. Bruce was a stand up man. I have to believe that he is up there somewhere getting those Angels back in shape and explaining to them the many benefits of the hook and his latex tubing!

I just cannot believe it. He was the really inspiration for many members on this forum. It is a great loss for his family and all us. So sad.
