RIP Elmo Bridgewater DVM ? - 2017
Dr B funeral is Tuesday 22 August at 2 pm in Cunupia Anglican Church.
Dr Bridgewater or Dr. Bridge was the person who took Karla, Tisha and I hunting to gather the data in the paper below. The last time I went by myself with Dr. Bridge and I was late because I could not get a taxi or a ride and I had to walk and even then I did not have a mobile phone to let him know. When we got to the location the hunters were taking down the camp and they were also vexed that I was late. I walked around in the forest a bit and somehow picked exactly the correct plants that they had described using and they nodded and said yes when I showed them the plants. They relaxed a bit after that and then we probably had some rum and went home.
For the paper below I made up Bridge's email address and I'm not sure if he ever validated it.
