Mr. Rank Eric Bridges' Obituary
Rank Bridges, 68, of Dayton, TX was born on April 18, 1949 in Oak Grove, Louisiana to parents Oliver and Marie Bridges, and went home to be with his Lord on September 7, 2017.
Following his move to Houston, Rank attended schools in the Galena Park school district. He began his career as a pipefitter, eventually advancing to foreman. Rank and Connie were married in Houston, TX on November 15, 1997. After serving fifty years in the construction industry, and a serious motorcycle accident in 2005, Rank shifted his focus to hunting and motorcycles, but most of all Rank enjoyed the time he was able to spend with his family. He was articulate, caring, and kind and was especially proud of doing projects around the home and for others.
Rank is survived by his loving wife Connie Bridges; son, Rank (Beau) Bridges (Jennifer) of Houston, TX; daughters, Ericka Ayala (Kenny) of Crosby, TX, Shari Bridges (Tara) of Dayton, TX, Kamra Doll of Dayton, TX, and Lauren Doll of Dayton, TX ; brothers, Earnie Bridges (Donna), Frank Bridges (Jo), and Horace Bridges; sister, Judy Bingham (Terry); his 14 grandchildren, and 7 great grandchildren.
A private family viewing will be held from 2:00pm to 3:00pm. The family invites all family and friends to join them from 3:00pm to 4:00pm for a non-viewing condolences hour on Wednesday, September 13th, 2017.
