Born on May 4, 1948 in Montpelier, Idaho to Edwin Eugene and Mary Carver, Bruce received an Engineering Degree from Idaho State University and began his career in San Francisco. After moving back to Utah, he became a creative inventor who began producing revolutionary computer games in 1982. From humble beginnings in his basement, he expanded the business and with his genius became a "game god" and founder and CEO of Access Software, best known for producing internationally best selling and award winning computer games like the Links golf series which he eventually sold to Microsoft. Using that same genius he then founded Carver Homes, and together with his family and co-workers built two homes that have won "best of show" the past two years in the Summit County Parade of Homes. Though successful in everything he did, his family was his greatest joy and will be his finest legacy. Whether in work or play, this tireless family team seized every day and lived it to the fullest. He is survived by his mother Mary, his wife and love of his life, Lenna Jacobson Carver, loyal sons Chris (Nicole) Carver, Nick (Megan) Carver, Pat (Chelsea) Carver, Tony (Natalie) Carver, loving daughters Jessica (Brad) Beck, Lindsay (Clark) Spencer and Taunie (Doug) Reynolds and sixteen adoring grandchildren aged nine to four months. Bruce is also survived by brothers Roger (Marie), Gary (Kathy) and sister Connie (Bruce) Williamson and was preceded in death by a sister, Analee Carver and his father, Eugene.
