Six Degrees Loses Mentor and Friend
Six Degrees is heartbroken to announce the sudden passing of Bruce Leitl. Bruce was rushed to St. Paul's Hospital in Vancouver early Monday morning and last night succumbed to complications from cardiac arrest.
Everyone at and associated with Six Degrees was extremely proud to know and work with Bruce. He lived his dream of creating and producing wonderful music, and his last few years, especially 2009, have been a deeply rewarding and enjoyable time in his remarkable career. He had a magnificent gift, and his music will be with us always.
With Bruce's passing, we have lost a dear friend and mentor. This kind and beautiful man leaves to mourn his family and our hearts go out to them, especially to his wife Diana and their beloved daughter Sophia.
Details on funeral arrangements will be announced when they become available.
