Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Devoted Husband, Father, and Grandfather
Bruce Lyman Conners, 70, died Saturday, June 10, 2023 at Phenix City Healthcare with his family by his side.
Bruce was born February 13, 1953 in Plattsburgh, New York to Beatrice and Steven Conners. He is preceded in death by his three brothers Ronnie, Steven, and Kevin. His two sisters Bonnie
and Patt. Lastly, his two parents.
He is survived by his wife Deborah. His children Shane and Stephanie. His six grandchildren Kaytlin, Luke, Conner, Brodie, Railey, and Charleigh.
Bruce was a family man who loved spending quality time with his children and grandchildren. His favorite time of the year was Christmas because that was a time when he could have
everyone in one place and could spoil all of his grandchildren.
Bruce and his devoted wife, Deborah, just celebrated their 50th anniversary of being together. Even with his dementia the one person that he would always remember was his beloved wife.
He is a U.S. Army military veteran who served during the Vietnam war. He was a hardworking man who worked for thirty plus years at Knox Pest Control in Columbus, Georgia.
Graveside service will be held at Ft. Mitchell National cemetery with full military honors on Wednesday, June 14th at 12:30pm.
The family is being assisted by Georgia Cremation of Columbus, Georgia. Please leave a condolence or share a fond memory below.

This is a beautiful tribute to Bruce! He was certainly a family man and I remember how much he loved Christmas! He was at his favorite stores buying so many presents that they was not all going to fit under his Christmas tree! He also loved watching his favorite football team { Alabama of course} on TV! Family would interfere with him watching his tv and watch us dirty up his clean kitchen! Boy would he tell us not to mess up but we all knew he was not really mad !! I know Bruce come help us if we ever needed us!! He was really a great guy! We certainly have good memories of him!!
