Bruce was born in Houston on November 22, 1951, to Mackree & Alice Crenshaw. Bruce married Sandra on his 18th birthday, and soon after relocated to Navasota.

He began doing auto repair work at Farmer’s Clinic, then moved on to Hertenberger Chevrolet before finally going into business for himself. The man, the myth, the legend could do just about anything. From working on “junk,” building & roofing houses, to helping anyone in need, he did it all.

Bruce was also a volunteer at Anderson Fire Department and was well recognized in the community.

He loved his wife and family and would do anything in the world for those he loved. No questions asked. Bruce was a longtime member of Victory Church, which he loved very much.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Alan; sister, Kathy; granddaughters, Harley & Savanna; and grandson James.

Bruce is survived by his wife Sandra Crenshaw of Anderson; son and daughter-in-law, Michael Bruce & Melody Helene Crenshaw; daughters and son-in-law, Kristi Elaine & Kevin Lee of Natchitoches, LA, Kimberly Michelle Crenshaw of Bryan, and Karen Jeanice Crenshaw of Bryan; brothers and daughters-in-law, James & Kay Crenshaw of Onalaska, and Clifford & DeNae Crenshaw of Bryan; sister Vicki Crenshaw of Navasota; grandchildren, Brianna, Brittney, Kristanna, Taylor, Chloe, Trenton, Logan, Isabella, Audrey, and Matthew; and great-grandson Chip.

Serving as pallbearers are Trenton Nienstedt, Logan Morales, Joseph Walker, Clifford Crenshaw, Jr, Johnny Gierisch, and Edwin Schultz.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Victory Church, the staff at CHI St. Joseph and all the friends and family that have reached out with condolences during this time.

“A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”
