Aunt Bridie Gavin, beloved Sheridan family historian and general wonderful woman. I remember your warm, loving personality, an original if ever there was one; sharp witted, pull no punches Irish through and through. No one's fool, yet always there for those in need. Rest in peace.

My thoughts and prayers are with Bridie. I can't come to the funeral because I'm just home from the hospital but I will be with her in spirit.
