Bridget was my first friend at UCM and we did everything together. Even driving to fast food places cause we were craving canes. This is just one of my favorite memories and I think after that we talked about being bridesmaids. I’m sending my prayers and thoughts to your family.

Bridget was my sweet boys daycare teacher. She was the best teacher and she loved my baby so big. She made it so easy to trust leaving him in her care. Even after he moved rooms, he still talked about Ms Bridget. My family is sending you prayers for comfort during this time.

My heart dropped when I saw this! My heart breaks for you and your family. May God wrap his loving and comforting arms around all of you. I worked with your beautiful, sweet daughter at BBA, we talked frequently while we closed our rooms each day. If I was running behind, Bridget would offer to help me. She was great with her little kiddos. They loved her and she loved them in return. She will be greatly missed and always remembered. ❤️

Being Bridget’s science teacher was a pleasure. Bridget was bright, thoughtful, kind, and she worked hard. From my time with her I can confidently say she made every room she stepped into a better place. I’m thankful I got to know her. My condolences to the Burgoon family.

Bridget was one of my son’s preschool teachers. She was always a bright light in his day. She was always kind and loving to the kiddos. The last time I saw Bridget at BBA was just about two weeks ago. As we were leaving, my son could not leave until he waved good-bye to her! He loved her!

Bridget’s grandfather Joe is a very good friend of the Jacobsmeyer family and my heart goes out to him and to all the Burgoons. Bridget watched over my great nieces and nephew at Tree House. Impossible to understand such tragedies as this. I will pray for strength, comfort and peace. I look forward to meeting Bridget some day in heaven.
