Sad to hear this. He was the main force behind keeping hockey in Peoria, but probably few Bradley fans know that he was a big supporter of Bradley and a fan of Bradley basketball. He was a member of the Bradley Founders Society, which is a designation given to only a small number of dedicated donors who give extremely large financial donations and continue them over long periods of time.

he did a lot for Peoria .. sympathies for his family - who just about everyone in Peoria knew in one way or another...

the lower bowl is really gonna be empty this season as we have recently lost a lot of long time fans

Sad to hear......Bruce might have been small in stature, but a huge man to the Peoria and surrounding communities......did a lot for sports and a lot for charities.....will surely be missed!

Bruce Saurs' visitation (yesterday & this morning) and funeral (today) were remarkably attended - proof of his impact in this city .. literally thousands of people who knew Bruce through sports, business, family...
