Roti, dhal, rice and chicken curry were her signature dishes to everyone who visited her home. Bridget's family referred to her as the “Boss.” She was a well-dressed, sociable and dignified woman with a wide circle of friends. Her voice was lovingly firm when she spoke. Her sense of humour was sharp and on point and at times, left everyone speechless. A private service will be held.Take a moment to share a memory with the family.
