He went to art school, and put his artistic talents to work in several Manhattan advertising firms, including Lowe Lintas. He left the advertising business in 2002 and worked as a contractor in Stamford, CT for the rest of his life. Bruce had a passion for art and design, and he was an avid classic car enthusiast.

Above all, he loved spending time with his family and friends, especially with his first grandchild Antonio. Bruce is survived by his wife, Liz DeVito, his brother Stan Balkin (and wife Jamie), his son Gregory Balkin, his step-sons David DeVito and Frank DeVito (and wife Molly), his grandson Antonio DeVito, his nieces Nicole Balkin, Jennifer Michnowski (and husband Alan), Allison Longstreet (and husband Chris), his great-niece Olivia and great-nephew Jeffrey, as well as many cousins. A funeral service will take place on Friday, November 16 at 1:00 p.m. at Leo P. Gallagher & Son Funeral Home on 2900 Summer St. in Stamford, CT.

All are welcome to attend, to pray for Bruce and his family, and to celebrate his life.
