Bridget was raised in Darien, Connecticut and stayed in touch with many Darien High School friends In her adolescence, she was known for her impressive talents as an all-state gymnast and Irish step dancer, winning several New England Oireachtas titles and competing at the World Championship level Bridget graduated from the University of Delaware with a degree in Elementary and Special Education where she forged a life-long bond with her college roommates She later received a Master of Arts in Education from Sacred Heart University Most recently, Bridget was employed in the Human Resources department of International Data Group, and our family would like to extend our thanks for their support
One of Bridget's most captivating qualities was her immense kindness toward others She sincerely cared for everyone who had the good fortune of being a part of her life Bridget was always so thoughtful and made sure you knew you were loved She had a passion for country music and would rarely pass on an opportunity to attend a live concert with family or friends "In the end, it is not the years in your life, but the life in your years" – although we are so heartbroken over the loss of our dear Bridget, her inspiring presence will live on through treasured memories We now have the most beautiful angel watching over us
