SWTrails Remembers Long-Time Volunteer Glenn Bridger

We are sad to report that Glenn Bridger passed away on May 16, 2023.  More details on his passing and services will be shared when available.   

Glenn enjoyed living in Portland since 1991. His professional career spanned 50 years in the obscure field of acquiring rights-of-way for highway projects. With his background in transportation he was a valuable asset when SWTrails met with the City to discuss ways to make walking safer in southwest Portland.   In addition to his work with SWTrails PDX, he was active in the Hillsdale Neighborhood Association, past president of Southwest Neighborhoods, Inc. (SWNI), and a founding member of the Hillsdale Farmers Market.  Glenn’s constant smile and willingness to share a joke lightened every meeting or event he attended.  Glenn is survived by his wife Karen two daughters, and four grandchildren.  He will be missed by all who knew him.
