Bruce Heald

Bruce Heald, 68, of Davenport, passed away Wednesday November 11th, 2026 at University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics.

A Celebration of Life will be held November 28th at 1:00pm, at Duck Creek Pavilion - 3300 E. Locust Street, Davenport.

Bruce was born June 21st, 1958 in Iowa, son to Richard and Shirley (York) Heald. During his life, he found partnership with Kimberly Stroupe and spent over 34 years laughing together.

Bruce was a huge sports fan, his favorite teams being the Green Bay Packers, Oakland (Las Vegas) Raiders, and of course the St. Louis Cardinals. He had the opportunity to see the Cardinals play numerous times with family throughout his life. This wild wacky loyal Cardinals fan was especially proud of the trip he planned to Pittsburgh, to see Yadi and Pujols play their final three games. Bruce had a lethal sense of humor and expert level procrastination skills. In his younger years, he found joy in art and drawing, and to nobody's surprise some of his projects still sit unfinished. Above all he loved his family, especially his grandchildren, and would want everyone to know that "You've got a friend in me."

Those left to honor his memory include his partner Kimberly; children Nick (Megan Coné) Heald, Lucas (Bridget Faull) Heald, Justin (Njeri Mungara) Stroupe, Chelsea (Andrew Davis) Larson, and Shanyn Heald; grandchildren Kaylaunii, Jaeln, Alivia, Kenzie, Skyler, Lila, Mason, Lily, Lennon and Parker; siblings Sam Heald, Kim Boughner, Shane Heald, Barb Heald, Brock Heald and Brad Heald; best friend of over 60 years Chuck Snyder; and many nieces and nephews.

He was proceeded in death by his parents and siblings Chris Heald, Cheryl Heald, Debbie Hoaglin and Carolyn Heald.

We hope you enjoy the view from the best seat in the stadium Bruce, we know you will be there.
