Madison - Bruce B. Mohs, age 82, died Sunday, February 1, 2015. Bruce was born on October 29, 1932 in Madison to the late Carl and Doris (nee Baldwin) Mohs. Bruce was a lifelong Madison resident. He attended college at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX, and after graduating he proudly served his country in the U.S. Air Force as a 2nd Lieutenant serving during the Cold War in Newfoundland. In 1963, he married the love of his life, Jeannette Hight. Together they celebrated 51 years of marriage. To say Bruce was a bit eccentric would be an understatement.

Bruce was active in the Madison community, volunteering with the Hiram Lodge #50, Rotary Club of West Madison, and the Shriners.
