Remembrances |
|
“Miller Bridgewater had a beautiful, deep voice and used to sing "He Touched Me" and other solos in services. In Jonestown, he worked in the central kitchen as a butcher, and was also a vegetable worker there. Edith Roller called Miller "Brother Bridgewater" once they were in Jonestown. ” - Kathryn Barbour“I worked at Macy's when Miller was a custodian there back in the '60s and early '70s. A nicer gentleman you'd be hard pressed to meet. I still remember how thrilled he was when he first started attending Jones' marathon weekend church services. For the first time in his life, he really felt like he'd been touched by the spirit of God. So sad...RIP...” - Pat Dowling |
