Bridie, Although it's been a long time since I saw you last, I hold so many wonderful memories of you from both Heaton Intermediate and CGHS. I will always remember you for your brilliant mind, quick wit, fantastic sense of humour and strong sense of justice. You will be so missed. Rest in peace, beautiful Bridie x

Dear Bridie, I can't believe you are gone. I will always remember your kindness and warmth. I hope you can now rest easy. Xx

Dearest Bridie, I will remember your kind nature and great smile! I will hold the memory of my last time with you when we shared laughs at Beat Street Cafe. Rest easy now, your pain and worries no longer bind you, now you are embraced by peace. XX

Bridie was an awesome person. We were flatmates for several years while she was studying law in Auckland. It was a joy to live with her, and we had a blast during those years. I will always look fondly on that period of my life, and she was a big reason why. We have all lost an amazing, empathic person who made the world a better place.

With deepest condolences to Kieran, Clara and family. We hold precious memories of our time in Christchurch with you all and Jane. For Bridie say not in grief that she is no more but in thankfulness that she was.

I’m so sad to hear of Bridie’s passing. She was such an intelligent, beautiful, funny woman, and I will miss her dearly. Rest peacefully darling girl. Much love to your family at this difficult time.

Bridie although we had lost touch over the last few years, I always considered you a dear friend. So many memories of London, Cambridge, the Turkey trip and endless nonsense. So many laughs. I will love you forever my dear Brides, May you rest in peace.

Gone to young, my dear friend. We first met in London and we hit it off immediately! I loved your energy, your humor, your intellect. Gosh you were smart! The kind of smart you didnt make others feel stupid. We had so many adventures together! That very first ski trip to Slovenia and adventuring around the huts looking for sausage and beer. Our travels around Turkey. The Auckland era! Such wonderful, special, hilarious times we shared all those years ago. May your beautiful soul now rest in peace! RIP Bridie Sweetman! Sweetlady! Xxx
