In Memory of Bruce Caris

October 01, 2021

The American Pecan Council and staff are deeply saddened by the recent loss of Bruce Caris. Bruce served as the Vice Chair of the American Pecan Council and the Chairman of the Marketing committee. He certainly did not take those duties lightly. He was a very active member in the pecan industry and his leadership and achievements will never be forgotten. He will forever remain one of the prominent leaders in the pecan industry.

A life celebration is scheduled for November 28 at 3:30 PM, La Mariposa, 1501 North Houghton Road, Tucson. Please RSVP by November 10 to lisafraser52@hotmail.com.
