Dear Bridges Family,
My heart is filled with lots of love but at the same time lots of saddness for each and every one of you. Joe was like a second father to me...and my siblings. Although many years have passed since we lived by each other, it seems like only yesterday that our families shared so much love and laughter. May Joe instruct the angels to lead your way now as he watches you all from above. With my deepest sympathy...

Joe was my best brother-in-law. He put up with me on alot of their vacations to Hawaii. I will miss him, he was a great husband to my sis, his love & respect for her was wonderful.
God Bless you Jean & all of your childred and families.
Love you always,
Joan

grandpa joes wisdom were my building blocks in life. loving and honoring you forever, the greatest man i ever knew!

Uncle Joe will leave a vast hole in the hearts of many. We pray for God's comfort for Aunt Jean and family.

Joe will always be on my list of most special people in my life. I always looked forward to tax time because I knew that I would be seeing him and getting caring and sage advice from him. I loved him as if he were my own Father and will miss him terribly. Thanks for the difference you made in my life Joe. (Joe is my second cousin) Lovingly, Ella Bridges

I worked with Joe for the past thirteen years. His booming voice and impressive demeanor impacted you with authority; even when he didn’t know the answer, his forceful delivery made you respect his opinion.

Joe always did what needed to be done for his clients, all of whom he very much cared for. He was an exceptional listener and was gifted in his ability to explain the most complicated of topics in an understandable manner. He was one of a rare few I would consult with - his wisdom...

My prayers and condolence goes out to Jean and the rest of the family.
Joe Linn was my last First Cousin on the Bridges side of the family.

We miss you Dad/Grandpa

You are & always will be a beloved grandfather!
