Cause of death: (from obituary October 10, 1968 Half Moon Bay Review/Pescadero Pebble newspaper): "Bridges was buried under 25 tons of dirt...when the dirt loader he was driving toppled over a sheer 30-foot cliff at the Pacific Coast Aggregates Comapny quarry in Brisbane, landing upside down on top of him. It took rescue workers two and a half hours to lift the loader away and dig him out."
* Thanks to Junior's niece for the information on his life and death and the wonderful photo of him. *
