Bruce was born August 9, 1961, in Durant to C.B. Bell and Claudie Mae (Stallings) Bell. He attended Madill High School, Southeastern Oklahoma State University as a Parson’s Scholar, and in 1989, he graduated from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
He established a successful internal medicine practice and also pursued interests in home renovation and design, for which his talents were recognized. He accomplished much in a short number of years, but closest to his heart were special friends, patients and family.
