Today we lost a great man, loving husband and a wonderful father. Bruce Jensen passed away peacefully March 24th in Helena MT.
Bruce Henry Jensen was a lifelong Montanan born in Choteau; March 30th, 1933 to Helen & Henry Jensen. Bruce was raised on a ranch and attended elementary school in the nearby town of Dupuyer. Bruce continued his education in Choteau where he went to high school while living with his Grandmother.
Eager for adventure at 17, Bruce proudly served his Country by joining the Navy in April 1950. A Navy Seabee, who was stationed in Iwakuni, Japan as a construction electrician. Bruce would never casually say he spent time in the Navy, he was always very specific and would say that he served 3 years, 9 months and 22 days in the Seabees as a construction electrician. In appreciation and respect, Bruce always flew the American Flag at his home in honor of the Country he loved.
In 1954, on June 13th Bruce married Nancy McClain in Conrad. Together the young couple fished, hunted Elk and dug Dinosaur bones on the Rocky Mountain Front.
