My beautiful friend B was a kind, humanitarian soul. She had unlimited love and patience for people. 15 yrs. ago I met B through our charity group friends. Besides the charity work, we had fun parties in each other`s homes, lunches, at different city restaurants, and picnics at the parks. Unfortunately, since the Covid-19, we were communicating only on the phone. I am very sad that one day in September our phone lines went forever silent. A timeless, fashionable strong classy lady, my friend B I will miss you. God bless you, and your family. May the stars become your friends until we meet again. Shila Madden

Oh Dear Bridie ,
You were and True Angel on earth. You touch everyone you encountered and inspiration to all.
Your precious Irish Broug was the delight of your heritage and a blessing to hear, words spoken came from your heart.
Dedicated to your strong religious faith, your family, friends, and all life seen on earth.
We will miss that spirt Each time we look across the hill and don’t see the flicker of lite from your window.
God Bless You precious lady.
May you be at peace with your Loving husband Phil in the company of Gods Devine Love.
