She was born on Nov. 22, 1907, in Grassy Meadows and was a daughter of the late Edgar Hampton and Virgie Elizabeth Lusher. She was preceded in death by Trent Bridges, her husband of 46 years. She was also predeceased by four sisters, Anna, Virginia, Opal and Patsy; and four brothers, Thomas, George, Roy and Harry. Preceding her in death were three of her children, Thomas Patrick, Delores Ann and Mary Lee; and one grandson, Eugene Roberts.
She is survived by two of her loving children, Edward Bridges and his wife, Allene, and Carolyn Bridges Hopper and her husband, Roger. She is survived by 11 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren and six great-great-grandchildren.
Mrs. Bridges' love of family and friends was exemplary. She never saw a need but that she made some attempt to address it. Her affection extended to those in need, whether family or friend. Her quick smile and generous hand was offered to all unconditionally. She opened her home to many family and adopted family members and to several individuals in need. She inherited a love of plants and animals from her mother. Her flower and vegetable gardens were as productive as her love for family. Her generosity was well known to all of her family and friends.
Mrs. Bridges was an avid reader and loved to awaken early and go to her flower or vegetable garden for an hour or two before the heat of the day. She would then often retire to breakfast and reading.
Service will be 11 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 25, at Wallace & Wallace Funeral Home, Rainelle, with Father Arthur Bufogle officiating. Burial will follow in End of the Trail Cemetery, Clintonville.
Visitation will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday at the funeral home.
