Thank you all so much for these kind words and memories, they truly have put a smile on my face in this difficult time. I laugh at the Railroad stories, because I also heard these from her point of view, she enjoyed that and her family that she had there so much. Losing my best friend and aunt is so hard, but I know she is no longer in pain and up in Heaven. Thank you for the support for our family at this time.

I'm sorry to hear of Bridget's passing. I've been away from the Railroad for awhile, and I wasn't aware of her illness. She was a Very Good Person to call a Friend, and a Very Good Person to work with. We Railroaders count on each other for our lives and safety, and I trusted Bridget with my life and safety, on many trips, as I hope she trusted me.

Cathy,
I am so sad to hear about your sister's death. I lost my baby sister five years ago. I still miss her terribly, but my memories of her will keep her alive in my heart forever. Hope this thought carries you through this difficult period. Praying for you and your family.
Thinking of you,
Barbara Jo Kerr

Bridget was a wonderful person to work with at the railroad. I am so glad I got to know her. May peace be with you friend.
~ John Rendell - June 17, 2014
Although time passes, good memories shared with old friends can last us a lifetime, so sharing just a few of my own of Cathy and her little sis, "Bridgee."
I remember when Cathy and Bridget moved to Louisburg and joined our "Blue" fast-pitch team. It seems the consensus was, "City girls...? They probably don't even know how to swing a bat! :( Well, Cathy covered her bases, (1st & 3rd) like a banty hen and could "rocket-fire" a pitch over the plate that could tangle the pony-tails of more than a few batters. I still chuckle when I think of Bridget greeting the opposing batters with her Cheshire cat grin, just before pouncing on their last nerve with the most intimidating chatter ever to travel through the grill of a catcher's mask. She could be sneaky too! She was an expert at faking a throw down to second base by firing the ball to me at "short" before sacrificing life and limb for the out as I fired the ball right back to her! "Bridgee" never budged from protecting her plate. I witnessed many runners encountering their first, "human brick-wall" when trying to steal home or squeeze in a run. Cathy, I can still hear the sound of your voice, encouraging your little sister at bat, "C'mon, Bridgee! You can do it, send it!" The way you would say "Bridgee" was so endearing. Holy crows! YES, these city girls could not only swing a bat, they could "hit-the-holes" when in a pinch to advance the runner who many times, went on to dust up a run across home plate. So many other memories as we were all coming of age....probably better off left shared between us girls....like Cathy coming to my rescue late one night at "Swiggy's" at the expense of unfortunate damage to her car. (enough said) Surprisingly, Bridget learned the art of scaling "down" a chimney at my childhood home on P.D. Hill. (Again, enough said. I believe my sister, Dixie, and I taught many of our friends the same "art lesson.") "Bridgee," I can hear the train whistle blowing in heaven...it's blowing you home sweetheart, right into the arms of an angel.
Rest in peace, dear, old friend.
Cathy, you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers for some time to come.
~ Becky (P0ttorff) Shaffer - June 17, 2014
I remember one day on the locomotive, Bridget and I blew up a rubber glove and hung it out on the front of the engine to wave at everything we passed. Every train we passed took a double look at our engine to see what was blowing in the wind. We laughed all the way to Marysville.
I'm really happy I got to see her before she departed from this earth. She is at peace now.
~ g gray - June 17, 2014
Thoughts and prayers to family. I have not seen Bridget in a long time but always kept up with her thru Cathy. When u go to school n louisburg u always have a connection no matter how long it's been.
~ Lesa Elliott-kaiser - June 17, 2014
I worked with Bridget a couple of times at the railroad, and when I heard her voice on the radio, I would always call out and say," Hi Brenda ". Bridget always told me that that was her evil side and we always had a good laugh. Thank you Bridget for the memories and the stories and your stories about you making the baby back ribs.
~ Michael Enright - June 17, 2014
I will remember her smile, because even when she would be upset about something and talk with me about it she would always have that smile. Gonna miss you, Blondie!
~ Joe Kearney - June 17, 2014
My best friend is now an angel keeping a watchful eye on those of us she left behind. Bridget, I am so going to miss you.
~ Ardath Kusek - June 17, 2014
So sorry for your loss. I worked with Bridget at Union Pacific Railroad. She will be missed.
~ Connie Kampfer - June 17, 2014
I was very sad to hear of Bridget's passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I have known the family for almost 49 years, they used to live up the street from us in Overland Park, Bridget and I played together for years. When they moved to Louisburg, my sister Cheryl and I would stay with Cathy and Bridget. Cheryl and I had never heard of Louisburg until the family moved there, we had a lot of great times in that small town. Bridget was a great lady!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was blessed to have her as a friend for almost 49 years. She will be missed.
~ Mary Shepherd (Faltermeier) - June 17, 2014
I am saddened to hear of Bridget's passing. She was such a kind soul and always had a smile on her face. I am blessed to have had her as a friend in high school. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.
~ Sherri Cutshaw-Mitchell - June 17, 2014
