Born Bridget Lilie Richard in Nederland, TX, January 25, 1931 of “bon” Cajun heritage, she leaves behind her sons, Bob Gaspard, and Perry Gaspard; daughter, Stephanie Blankenship-Daley and husband Mike; grandchildren, Keegan Blankenship, Brixey Blankenship, Caroline Catlin, and a great grandchild, Isaiah McCarty Blankenship.
Bridget was the youngest of 9 Richard children; she was preceded in death by Eddie, Johnny, Mildred, Walter “Lu”, Doran, and is survived by her sisters, Edna Cappadonna, Dorothy Zampini, Darlene Knight, and many loving family and friends.
Stone Croft Christian Ministries, TOPS and The Red Hats were all fortunate to count her as a member.
Fi-Fi was an excellent Cajun cook and in her day a jitter-bug queen. She found joy spending time with her family and helping others. Two of her favorite past-times included shopping with Stephanie and decorating her home while Perry constantly rearranged the furniture to “lets see how it looks over there”.
Mom, we miss you!
