Donald O. Bridge, 79, had been ill for some time. No funeral is planned, but an open house in "celebration of his life" will be held at the Bridge home, 102 Bridge Road, on Wednesday, April 25, from 5 to 8 p.m., said Bridge's wife, Janet. "All of his friends are invited to share in this celebration," she said. He was born Oct. 16, 1921, to Charles and Mabel (Odiorne) Bridge of Norfolk. He attended school in Norfolk and graduated from Norfolk High School. While still in high school, he began working at Norco Feed Mills Co. of Norfolk, which was founded by his family. He served in the military in World War II, as part of the 8th Air Force 100th Bomb Group that was based in England. Upon completing his military service, he attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and then began working full time for Norco Feed Mills. Mr. Bridge was first with the sales department and was instrumental in changing the company's emphasis from flour manufacturing to feeds. In the 1950s, he was involved in the change from dealer organizations to direct sales to feeders. He was a past member of the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission and was active in Ducks Unlimited. Mr. Bridge was also well known as one of the top amateur golfers in Nebraska. He qualified for the National Amateur Tournament twice in his career and carded 17 holes-in-one during his lifetime. Next month, he will be inducted posthumously into the Nebraska Golf Hall of Fame. He is survived by his wife, Janet; a daughter, Jane of Phoenix; two brothers, Bob of Norfolk and Bill of Omaha; and three grandchildren. He was preceded in death by an infant brother and a sister.
