Briggada Ann “Bridgit” Carranza, age 60 years of Adrian, passed away on Friday, August 29, 2025, at the ProMedica Charles and Virginia Hickman Hospital. She was born on March 31, 1965, in Holland, Michigan, the daughter of Maria (Lozano) Ochoa and Santos Carranza.
Bridgit graduated from Madison High School in 1983. She attended Adrian College and worked as a dietary manager in the health care industry at Adrian HealthCare.
Bridgit loved the simple things in life, a good cup of coffee, watching the birds, doing crossword puzzles, listening to music, reading a good book, going to the lake and watching horror movies. Her favorite thing was becoming a grandmother and spoiling her grandchildren and pets.

She was preceded in death by her step-dad, Robert Ochoa, and grandparents, Librado (Chonita) Lozano and Aljandro (Maria) Carranza.
