To the Family of Bridgette Washington- I was so shocked to hear of the passing of Bridgette.Some years back we use to serve on the communion team together. Bridgette was always a great person to talk to. I also remember teaching in Brittanty's class in church when she was little. She was cute and such a spunky little girl. Bridgette will truly be missed,but please remember, she's not suffering any more and God is taking care of her now.... Love Annette Jones

My sincere sympathy and prayers go out to the family. I am so sad for your loss and my heart goes out to you and the kids who had the blessing of a very loving mother. May you all be comforted always. Bridgette was a very special friend over the years and our boys were only one month apart and we shared so many memories with our kids when she lived in Woodbridge. We had so much fun as you were such a child at heart. I miss her dearly and I am so proud of her perserverance as a woman after God's own Heart. I will never forget your smile Bridgette and the bond we had and I know you had with so many who loved you! Love you my friend!

My prayers and condolences go out to Greta and the family. I knew Bridgette in high school and ran across her many years later at Capital One. Bridgette seemed to be doing quite well and had found the Lord Jesus. I know she is in a better place. She had that inner peace and joy that only Jesus can give. To God be the glory.

Bridgette, you were one of the most genuine people I have ever met.....nobody how bad my day would be going you could always say something sweet to make me smile...you will be truly missed. Your life here although not as long as hoped was well spent you filled any room with joy...that's more than anyone could ask for. May your memory live on forever and may you rest in peace because you deserve it........God's got you now, and nobody deserves you more. Thanks for all the good times at AIC...all the complaining we did :-) I guess we're both out of there now!! May God keep your family especially your beautiful children.....sitting with you every day and only meeting them once I hope they know how much their mother cherished them and loved them every minute of every day....All my love
