In Loving Memory

Terry A Bridge, Jr
August 10, 1968 — July 16, 2026
Terry A. Bridge, Jr., affectionately known to many as "Tab," passed away on July 16, 2026, after a courageous battle with heart disease. Born in Philadelphia on August 10, 1968, Terry was a beloved son, a devoted husband, a cherished father, loving brother and a loyal friend.
Terry’s journey began in the city of Philadelphia, where he was born to Terry A. Bridge, Sr. and Jean Bridge. He was raised in Riverton, Detroit and ultimately Cinnaminson, where he was a proud graduate of Cinnaminson High School, class of 1987. Terry was most recently employed with DP Brown of Pennsylvania. Known for his quick wit and sly smile, Terry always knew how to lighten a room with his infectious enthusiasm and love for life.
On November 20, 2004, Terry married the love of his life, Leigh (nee Dickinson) and together they built a beautiful life over the course of 21 years. Their union was blessed with a daughter, Sarah Leslie, who was the light of Terry's life. He also leaves behind his loving parents, Terry and Virginia Bridge, as well as his siblings Wendy Bridge (Joe Firulli), Janice Smith (Chuck), and Matthew Bridge (Mandy Lewis). His extended family includes Uncle Ed Bridge (Maggie), Mother-in-law Leslie Dickinson, Sister-in-law Kimberly Cioci (Jason), nephews Dylan Cioci and LC Smith, niece Lily Smith, and his dearly loved dog, Rosie.
Terry was predeceased by his mother, Jean Bridge, his Father-in-law Walter "Skeets" Dickinson, Jr., and his grandparents, Edward and Sarah Bridge.
A man of diverse interests, Terry loved playing pool, skateboarding, boating, fishing, and spending time down the Jersey Shore, particularly in Avalon and Long Beach Island. A music aficionado, he was always eager to attend live shows. He displayed a remarkable talent for trivia and was a Philly sports fan, especially the Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies. Above all of his interests, his favorite moments were spent with Leigh and his daughter, Sarah, as she was the absolute apple of his eye.
Terry’s family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the nurses of the 5 West Unit at Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals for their compassionate care during his extended stay. In lieu of flowers, donations in Terry's memory may be made to Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals in Philadelphia, PA.
A service to celebrate Terry's life will be held at Calvary Presbyterian Church in Riverton. This gathering will serve as a testament to a life well lived, although it ended far too soon, honoring a man who brought joy and laughter to all who knew him.
Terry A. Bridge, Jr. will be deeply missed, but his spirit will forever remain in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him.
