Bridget is predeceased by her beloved husband, George (2000). She is the cherished mother of George Jr., Gary, Judy (Doug), and Debbie, and a proud grandmother, known as Nanny, Nan, and Oma, to Janice (Johnathan), Janine (Justin), Kayla (Andrew), Chelsea (Brady), David, Hannah (Jordan), Savanah, and Aileen. Her legacy continues through her great-grandchildren Kai, Guylaine, Ayvah, William, Jakob, Hunter, Joey, Bella, Mia, Nevaeh, Justine, and Shawna.
She is survived by her siblings Leo (Betty), Pete (Sheila), Shirley (Frank), John (Cathy), Dave (Sharon), Lar, and Brian, and will forever remain in the hearts of her nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends. Bridget’s memory will be cherished by Manuela, Norbert, and Norma, whose bond with her was truly special. She is also predeceased by her parents, Peter and Agnes, and her sister, Angela.
Bridget was the heart of her family, our lifeline and our rock. Through sickness and health, she cared for each of us as though we were her own children. Her home was always open, a place where generations gathered and where friends became family. She lived a life of selflessness, compassion, and unwavering strength. She was always one call away, always willing to give the shirt off her back to anyone in need.
Her love carried generations and left us all with the gift of values, resilience, and appreciation for family that few are blessed to experience. Bridget was truly special, deeply loved in the eyes of all who had the grace to know her.
