Bruce remained active and in good health right through his retirement despite the gradual onset of [[deafness]], but the death of his wife Ethel in March 1967 took a deep toll on him. He died on 25 August 1967 at the age of 84. He was the last surviving member of [[Billy Hughes]]' Cabinet. His memorial service was held at [[St Martin-in-the-Fields]] and was widely attended, including by representatives of the [[House of Windsor|Royal Family]].{{sfn|Cumpston|p=265}} His ashes were scattered over [[Lake Burley Griffin]] in Canberra.{{sfn|Lee|p=183}} The Canberra suburb of [[Bruce, Australian Capital Territory|Bruce]], and the electoral [[Division of Bruce]] based in south-east Melbourne, were both named for him.<ref>{{cite web|title=Bruce (Suburb)|url=http://www.actpla.act.gov.au/tools_resources/place_search2?sq_content_src=%2BdXJsPWh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkYyMDMuOS4yNDkuMyUyRlBsYWNlTmFtZXMlMkZQbGFjZURldGFpbHMuYXNweCUzRm9iamVjdElEJTNENTM1MjkmYWxsPTE%3D|publisher=ACT Planning and Land Authority|access-date=21 August 2013}}{{Dead link|date=August 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Division of Bruce|url=http://www.aec.gov.au/profiles/vic/bruce.htm|publisher=Australian Electoral Commission|access-date=21 August 2013}}</ref>
