This is one angel that is going to be missed. Bridget always introduced me as a girl from her home town, Taghmon, Co. Wexford. I was actually born in Dublin but my parents came from Wexford, so we had a lot in common. She always had a funny story. When I worked in CVS Tim would drop her off at the store and after a long time, he would come in and find her chatting to me. He would say " I knew she was with you". Tim and Bridget are now together again. God rest their souls. I have known them since I came to Camarillo from Ireland in 1984. My husband Denis is from Cork so he and Tim would chat away. Our prayers are with you and them. Love always Bridget you will never be forgotten.
Thelma.
