Wayne Bridges

Wayne Bridges, 52 LEBANON -- Wayne Bridges, 52, passed away unexpectedly Saturday, Dec. 19, 2009, at his home where he lived with his brother Bruce. He was born July 14, 1957, the son of Elmer E. Bridges Sr. and Lorraine of Wells. He attended Wells schools and in the recent past was employed with Labbe Excavation, and before retiring due to health reasons, was employed with D & R Paving & Seal Coating. He enjoyed 'puttering' in the garden, cribbage, fishing and NASCAR, but his favorite thing was spending time with his daughter and 'bud' Emma. He loved attending church with his family and watching movies. His laughter and sense of humor will live in the hearts of those who knew him forever. Wayne was predeceased by his father Elmer Earl Bridges Sr.; and Lorraine of Wells; two brothers, Stephen and Billy of Wells, and two sisters, Barbara and Andrea. Wayne is survived by his daughter and NO. 1 fan, Emma; her mother Jennifer Thurston of Arundel; daughter Tara and son J.D. of New Hampshire; two brothers, Elmer E. Jr. of Wells and Bruce A. of Lebanon, nine sisters, Sherrill of Red hook, N.Y., Gail and Ruth of Waterboro, Audrey of Saco, Laurie of Waterboro, Tammy of Sanford, Nancy of Limerick, Rayleen of Wells, and Daisy.
