Bridie was a dear Nextdoor neighbor to myself and my parents, Saceen and Betty Maroone. Growing up I always loved Bridie´s brogue. She was a lovely lady who certainly loved her family. After moving away from Norman St. I wish I would have had the opportunity to talk with her again. Remembered as the sweetest, beautiful friend and neighbor. Sympathies to her family, I know she will be deeply missed .Karen Maroone Russell
