It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Bridget Rigelhof on November 24, 2024, in her 86th year.

Bridget was the beloved wife of the late Rick Rigelhof (2020) and a devoted mother to Sharon, Jeff, Lorraine (Alan), Michael, and the late Colleen (Glenn) (2015). She also gained Rick’s five sons, whom she embraced with love, Paul (Chantel), Noel (Carol), Neil, Tony (Terry), Karl. Bridget was a proud and loving grandmother to Trevor, Carly, Jennifer, Victoria, Michael, and Chantelle, and a cherished great-grandmother to Kara, Raina, Dillon, and Maksym. Bridget was also a dear sister to Edward.

A woman of deep Catholic faith, Bridget lived her life guided by love, and her devotion to her family and God. Her unwavering faith was a source of strength and comfort, and she found joy in her church community and in prayer. Her quick wit, fun-loving spirit, and passion for music and dance were reflections of her deep faith and joyful heart, leaving an enduring inspiration to all who knew her.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful staff at Ina Grafton Gage Home who provided Bridget with exceptional care, kindness, and compassion in her final days.

The family will receive friends at Pine Hills Funeral Home, 625 Birchmount Road (Birchmount & St. Clair Ave. E), on Monday, December 9, 2024. Visitation will begin at 12:00 PM, followed by a celebration of life service at 1:00 PM, with a reception to follow.

Bridget’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. May she rest in eternal peace.
