Bridget was the kind of mother that everyone wishes they have. A woman who would have given her bones to her children if they needed. Motherhood filled her cup as full as it could be. And when she became a grandmother, that cup overflowed and filled up every space around her. Her grandsons, Oliver and Theo, had her heart from the day they arrived, until the day she left. The relationship those three shared had an energy so big, anyone in the same space could feel the love. Bridget is truly irreplaceable.

Outside of her family, Bridget was loved deeply by so many. Not everyone, but mostly. Her spirit was fiery and honest, graceful and understanding, and she never half assed a single thing in her life. It doesn’t feel wrong to say a curse in this obituary because Bridget rarely spoke a sentence without one. Mouth like a trucker, they say.

Bridget drove her dump truck for over 30 years, and was a highly respected member of the trucking community. She spent time at Miller Construction, Ballegeer, Phoenix Surfacers, Wildermuth, Generation 2, Snowbird IDOT, and Scott County. She was a previous member of union Teamsters 371, and was an active member of International Union of Painters and Allied Trades at the time of her passing. She worked in a man’s world and was proud of her job. She could maneuver her dump truck better than many in the industry, men included. The way she passed, does not take away any of that.

She loved being outside, warm cups of coffee, and cigarettes. Watching sprint cars, her bible study sessions, and music you can dance to. Bridget loved her independence. And spoiling her grandkids. She loved to laugh, and was never afraid to cry. She loved her family deeply, and knew her family loved her back.

Bridget has left a mark on this world that will never be repaired or erased.

She is survived by her parents, Steve and Jackie Johnson; her sisters, Kelly Johnson (Erik Johnson), and Megan Thomas (Aaron Thomas); her aunt, Toni Johnson; her children, Bailey Comeaux (Joey Geerts), Steven Comeaux, and Christopher Comeaux, and Addison Hillyer; her grandchildren, Oliver and Theo Geerts; and many nieces and nephews
