written by a special family friend: Charles "Bus" Bruan was the "richest man I have ever known." He chooses the perfect wife for himself in Helen, he bought the perfect farm "the Love Farm" on Love Road and the most valuable crop he ever raised on that farm was 9 Bruan Children, Bob, Bill, Sunny, Sue, Ronnie, Roger, Shari, Alisha and Jennifer.
No family ever worked harder or played harder then this brood! the leader of high jinxes being "Bus." The Bruan cookouts were famous for food and fun --if "Bus" invited you to a hayride, look out--you were put on a wagon and picking up hay.
In his last days, he never went to a nursing home, he had the finest care ever, his devoted wife, Helen and his family saw to that. His legacy is his wonderful family. His spirit lives on through those children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
