Bridget enjoyed the beach no matter the season. She loved to take long walks on the boardwalk. She enjoyed being out in the fresh air such as sitting on the balcony for hours at the Monroe Towers and enjoying her parents porch in Concord, North Carolina when she would visit. She loved attending events such as concerts and plays. She enjoyed going out to eat and going to the movies. Bridget was a social butterfly with a soft spoken voice and had a heart of gold who enjoyed dancing. She was a giver, you would run into her often at the "field" as she called it where she would collect items such as food, toiletries, and clothing to gift others in need. She was what you'd call a "foot soldier" always walking. She served as a caregiver for Johnnie Mae Williams.
