Bruce Leon Mayall, a treasured soul and vibrant contributor to his community, peacefully passed away at the age of 83 on October 22, 2025, in his lifelong home of Oaktown, Indiana. Born to the late Raymond and Vivian Williams Mayall on the winter solstice of 1941, Bruce’s life was one that radiated warmth and generosity to all who had the pleasure of crossing his path.
Bruce’s legacy is lovingly cherished by his devoted wife of 62 years, Marilyn Mayall, their children Amberly Muckensturm (Scot) of Dallas, Texas, Robin Mayall of Dallas, Texas, and Ryan Mayall (Ashley) of Tampa, Florida. His memory will be held dear in the hearts of his grandchildren, Ashtan Barajas and Bentan Muckensturm, as well as his adored five great-grandchildren. While he rejoins his late brother, Jim Mayall, in the journey beyond, the stories and lessons he imparted remain a living testament to his character.
For much of his professional life, Bruce was a respected bank manager at Security Bank and Trust, winning the trust and respect of colleagues and customers alike with his integrity and wisdom. His entrepreneurial spirit later led him to own and operate the successful Blue Heaven Landscaping for over 16 years, serving the Oaktown community with pride and dedication.
A pillar of the Mariah Creek Christian Church, he nourished his faith and fellowship with boundless dedication. Bruce’s passions were a mirror to his soul—ranging from the roars of NASCAR engines to the serene moments spent with nature in his garden. He was an avid fan of Indiana University sports and could be found relishing a good game surrounded by friends and family, his spirit as competitive and jovial as any.
Never one to idle away his spare time, Bruce indulged in reading the daily newspaper, staying abreast of current events and seeking greater knowledge of the world around him. Cars were not only his interest but a canvas for his expression, and traveling provided him with a palette as broad as the horizon. Many a twilight was spent by the lake, fishing rod in hand, embracing the simple pleasures of life.
Bruce Leon Mayall lived a life brimming with love, hard work, and enjoyment of the world’s offerings. He imparted a legacy that touched numerous lives, and his absence will be deeply felt. As the seasons change and the memories gracefully age, Bruce’s story will be retold with fondness and admiration, a life truly well-lived.
There will be a memorial service held on Saturday, November 15, 2025 at Mariah Creek Christian Church 9366 E. Oaktown Rd. Oaktown, IN 47561 with Pastor Matt Hoffman officiating at 1:00 PM with visitation from 11:00 until the time of service.
