Ill always remember Brigitte from Northwood High School, we were wrestling managers together, 1979 and 1980. I remember Regionals, Caytonsville and States for wrestling.I kept score and she took pictures with her Nikon camera. Mr.Williamson,the coach and the varsity and jv teams,told us we did a great job! Ive thought about brigitte during the years and saw her on General Hospital 1980s. I was so excited to see her. Thankyou Brigitte, for being my "Sister"and my friend, [I have all brothers]. To a wonderful,kind and very caring family, Thankyou, for my friend Brigitte.

I will never forget Brigitte in High School. I was a very shy, not so confident 10th grader and we always talked right before my cheerleading practice because her boyfriend at the time was a wrestler. I looked forward to those little conversations after school each day. When I saw Kim on facebook, I thought it was Brigitte. When I told Kim the story she said, "you must mean my sister." I was in contact with Brigitte after that only once but she remembered who I was. She was truly a wonderful human being. I will never forget her.

Brigitte, hopefully you know how you've touched so many lives in the most positive way <3 It's still unbelievable I won't be seeing you again, here on earth. I always looked forward to your inspiring energy, beautiful smile and graciousness! I miss you much and embrace all that you've taught me!

I never knew Brigitte, saw her photos on Facebook and could see the love that radiated from her eyes. It is a shame that her life here on earth was cut short. God and heaven have gained a new angel.

I will cherish every minute I spent with you here on earth, just as I did with Heather. I will think of you both and miss you daily.
Love your sister. <3

To the Burdine Family - to say I am sorry for your loss just doesn't seem to be enough. I really am not sure anything I say will be enough. But I can say that even though is has been years since our family's have crossed paths there will always be a connection with the SSBC Family's - I will never forget the times we shared. I had just recently gotten back in contact with Brigitte through Facebook and I am grateful for the few conversations we had before she was taken away. Please know that my family is here if any of you need anything. We pray they find the person responsible for taking such a beautiful soul away much too soon. Brigitte was beautiful inside and out - I never heard her say a negative thing to anyone - she had room in her heart for everyone. She will be missed and the world will be alot less bright with her gone. May she rest in peace and spend time with Heather while they await our arrival. Go rest high on that Mountain Brigitte. You are in the arms of the angels now.

I met you only once at Kip's record store and you were very nice to my friend and I.
There's just no question that you were adored by many people. We should all be so lucky!

The world has lost a truly wonderful individual! You radiated love, joy, kindness, sweetness & friendship to all who came in contact with you. Not just when it suited you, but every day, in every way you could. You were the light that shown in the smiles you brought to everyone's face. A great example of how to treat other people, no matter their station! We all will miss you deeply. Sleep well. I know Rose, Pop, Heather & all the rest welcomed you, but we miss you more than words can ever express. God bless & keep you.

To our sweet Brigitte..I don't think it will ever sink in or even make sense how you were taken from us... MUCH too soon. I can only say how very grateful I am to have been touched by your brightest of smiles, your endless joy and your brilliant light. It is a light that can not be replaced on this earth! I love you and will always miss you!

The service yesterday was beautiful. The outpouring of love and the attendance was a telling tribute to how many loved Brigitte. It was fitting that it was held at the House of Blues. I am sad the Brigitte is gone. She accomplished so much and touched so many lives. RIP

I will be at your Memorial in spirit as you will be in the rest of my life the same way. I will miss you Brigitte.

I hope that somehow you know how many lives you touched; how much you were loved. Hundreds will attend your service on Sunday, probably something no one could imagine for themselves. It says so much about your love of life and your beautiful spirit that will live on forever. Your beauty, kindness, talent, your smile, and the sparkle in your blue eyes will never be forgotten.

A Reminiscence

YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.

May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.

Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;

To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.
