Bridget was born December 6, 1919 at the family farm southwest of Tribune. She grew up with nine brothers and five sisters. At the age of 16 Bridget left home accompanying her older brother, Mart, to Big River. She worked for a family near Shellbrook. When she returned home she worked south of Weyburn for the Giroux family and then went with her brother, Tom to Souris, MB where she worked in a restaurant . From Souris she went to Winnipeg to work in a sewing factory with her sister. Bridget began attending meetings of Jehovah's Witnesses in Winnipeg and it was there that she made her dedication to serve her God, Jehovah for the rest of her life. She was baptized on June 29, 1947 at the age of 27 years. In 1949 along with a close friend, she moved to Montreal to share the good news of God's kingdom. She had many friends surrounding her including a soft spoken man named Aldo Mastrocola whom she married on June 22, 1955. She began working at the McGill Faculty Club in January 1970 and worked there until she retired. She really enjoyed her work as a waitress serving many people from Parliament Hill and on one occasion Prince Phillip. Aldo and Bridget lived at several different places in Montreal. They had a wonderful life as they served Jehovah together. Aldo fell asleep in death on April 7, 1993. Bridget remained very active living on her own and at the age of 90 took a Bengali language course with her friends in order to share the Bible's message with folks moving to Canada from India. As her health began to fail she decided it was time to move back to Saskatchewan to be close to her family and so took up residence at the Crocus Plains Villa on March 16, 2011. She enjoyed her time there and the care that she received was wonderful. Her brother, Palmer, came to visit often and on his last visit (five days before her stroke) she shared a Bible thought with him about Jesus' death. She indeed proved herself faithful even to death (Rev 2:10). On April 12, 2014 Bridget fell asleep in death at the age of 94. She was predeceased by her parents, Sulamith and Robert Corr, eight brothers: Ralph, Harley, Arthur, Mart, Thomas, John, Lawrence and Jim, five sisters: Marie, Christina, Laura, Mary and Vida. She is survived by her brother, Palmer Corr, of Trossachs as well as 17 nieces and nephews and their families. A service of remembrance was held on April 17 at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses in Weyburn. Bridget was laid to rest in the Slager Cemetery at Tribune.
