Passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 1, 2020 at his home surrounded by his family. He was 66 years old. Bruce John Leaman was born on January 14, 1954 in Saginaw to the late Donald J. and Jean Elizabeth (Brown) Leaman. Bruce could relate to nearly anyone and had countless good friends as a result. He is loved for his genuine and selfless nature, his gentleness, his humor and bad puns, his intelligence and gamesmanship, and that beard! Bruce found his true calling when he became a founding member of Major Chords for Minor (MCFM). He was a respected piano teacher as well as a mentor and friend to countless children. MCFM is developing a scholarship in his honor. Bruce is survived by his brother, Jay and Sylvia Leaman of Florida; and sister, Troy Leaman Miller of Washington; nephews and niece: John and Nick Miller, Milo, Marcel, Paloma, and Maximo Leaman.
