Born January 24, 1991, in Minneapolis to Steven and Melissa (Rambow) Bergeson, Bridget was a light to all who knew her — a deeply caring soul whose love for others defined every chapter of her life.
Bridget grew up in Spicer and graduated from New London-Spicer High School in 2009. It was there her passion for caring and helping others began to take root. She pursued that calling wholeheartedly, earning her bachelor’s degree in nursing from Bemidji State University in 2016. Never one to stop growing, she continued her education and proudly achieved her Doctorate of Nurse Partitioning from North Dakota State University in May 2025, a milestone she worked tirelessly to reach.
For the past two years, Bridget worked as a nurse at Bethany Nursing Home in Fargo, North Dakota. There, she became known not only for her clinical skill but for her compassion, laughter, and the brightness she brought to every shift. Her presence made a difference in the lives of her residents and coworkers alike.
Bridget had a fierce love for life. As a softball pitcher she cherished her time on the mound and carried that competitive, spirited energy into everything she did. She had a strong faith in God that grounded her through life. She found joy in every adventure—whether it was trying something new, traveling, fishing, or simply savoring the little moments. She especially cherished times spent camping, gathered around bonfires, or celebrating her favorite holidays like the Fourth of July and Christmas. More than anything, she treasured time with her family, and her bond with her twin nieces.
She is survived by her loving parents, Melissa and Steve Bergeson; sister, Megan (Matthew) Suedbeck and their daughters, Maevyn and Maddox; brother, Nicholas Bergeson; boyfriend, Wes Burdulis and his son, Rylen; grandparents, Dick and Jeri Bergeson and Gerry and Paul Altringer; and many cherished aunts, uncles, extended family members, friends, coworkers, and the many lives she touched through her care.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Donna Dee and Gerald Rambow; aunt and uncle, Ronna and Dennis Flesner; uncle, John Bergeson; and cousin, Becky Wagenbach.
Bridget’s light lives on in the memories of those who loved her.
