Remembering Tim and Bridget
Bayonne residents Tim and Bridget O’Donnell, who were killed in a car crash on the NJ Turnpike in 2016, were remembered in the annual Pike’s Peak Ascent and Marathon in Colorado Springs on Aug. 21.
Erin Everson of St. Louis ran the ascent with the names of Tim and Bridget on her back. Keep Kids Alive Drive 25 invited the O’Donnell family to the event, along with 14 other families whose loved ones died in preventable car crashes.
