Bruce Franklin Ashkenas Obituary
We are sad to announce that on October 2, 2025, at the age of 79, Bruce Franklin Ashkenas of Alexandria, Virginia passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Bruce Franklin Ashkenas to pay them a last tribute.
As we bid Bruce farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Bruce is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He is survived by: his wife Denise Ashkenas; his sons, Sam and Adam Ashkenas; and his brother Ronald Ashkenas (Barbara). He is also survived by nieces and nephews.
