Bruce's obituary
December 16, 1960 – November 4, 2019
Bruce Howard Sinnamon, 58, passed away suddenly at his home in Bismarck, ND on November 4, 2019, of natural causes.
Bruce grew up in Jenkintown, PA, attended Abington High School in Abington, PA and Upper Moreland High School in Willow Grove, PA where he graduated in 1978. He studied Sociology at Penn State Abington and Pennsylvania State University Main Campus. He also studied Management Information Systems at Minot State University, Minot, ND. Bruce most recently worked as a Business Analyst for Unisys.
Bruce loved family, animals, sports, music and long drives. A lifetime Philly “Phan”, he enjoyed following his favorite sports teams from a distance and knew the athletes, sportscasters, and plenty of facts and trivia about all of them. Bruce was an avid bowler, embracing his role as league secretary for many years. His passion for guitars had him playing in a band “when he still had hair” as he liked to say, and later on turning that passion into production as a sound technician, a hobby he excelled at. He cared deeply for his step-grandchildren and will be missed by all who knew him.
He was predeceased by his mother Ella Mae (Peterson) Sinnamon and his father Howard Isaac Sinnamon of Jenkintown, PA, and his sister Melinda Sue (Sinnamon) Dougherty of Ocala, FL. He is survived by Tyann Sinnamon of Bismarck, ND, his sister Julie Ann Sinnamon of Jenkintown, PA and his brother Craig Robert Sinnamon of Shillington, PA.
A memorial service is scheduled for Monday, November 11, 2019 at 10:00 am at the Century Baptist Church, 205 Colt Avenue Bismarck, ND 58503. Another service will be held in PA at a date TBA.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations in Bruce’s name be made to Furry Friends Rockin’ Rescue, Inc of Bismarck Mandan, ND or Mocha’s Mission of Bismarck, ND.
