Self

Bruce, born on June 19, 1949, in Oklahoma City, to Robert Loyd and Edna Mae (Poyor) Self, passed away peacefully at home on October 10, 2026, surrounded by his beloved family. His passing marks the end of a remarkable journey filled with unwavering love, laughter, and an adventurous spirit that touched the lives of many.

Bruce was a devoted husband to his cherished wife, Isae, with whom he shared 57 beautiful years of marriage. Together, they built a life brimming with joy and togetherness, nurturing a family that stands as a testament to their enduring love. Their union was blessed with two wonderful children, Tina and Matt, who carry forward his legacy with grace and strength. As a proud grandfather to Robyn, Allyson, and Kyle, Bruce found immense joy in watching his grandchildren grow and flourish, delighting in every moment spent with them. He is also survived by his brothers, Larry and Rocky, and his sister-in-law, Jan.

Bruce embarked on a successful career with B&R Asphalt, dedicating 44 years of hard work and commitment to a field he took great pride in. His colleagues and friends remember him as a generous and steadfast individual, always ready to lend a helping hand or share a story filled with wisdom and humor.

A true enthusiast of life’s adventures, Bruce had a passion for flying his plane and exploring the depths of the sea through diving. He and Isae spent cherished moments at Lake Texoma, where they found solace and happiness amidst the serenity of nature. Bruce's love for history, particularly the stories of wars and planes, was a defining trait, and he took great pleasure in imparting his knowledge to anyone willing to listen.

Those who knew Bruce will remember him as a generous, albeit stubborn, soul who loved deeply and fiercely. His spirit was one of determination and kindness, qualities that left an indelible mark on all who were fortunate enough to cross his path.
