Dan Allen Bridges

Dan Allen Bridges of Flint, TX passed away on July 5th at Hospice of East Texas from

Pancreatic Cancer at the young age of 54.

Dan was born on May 16, 1968 in Houston, TX. He was a graduate of Chapel Hill High School,

Tyler, TX in 1986.

In his younger years he took classes for motorcycle mechanics and worked as a draftsman, but

soon found his passion of driving an 18-wheeler, he loved being able to see the world. After

many years went by, he finally purchased his own first big rig in 2021 he named his company

“Texas Patriot Logistics”. Motorcycles were still a passion too, his favorite ride was driving his

Hayabusa on the million mile highway in Colorado and taking his Jeep in the mountains as well.

Dan was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, friend, and a man of God, who will be

profoundly missed by those he left behind on this Earth. We have peace knowing that he is no

longer in pain and is in heaven rejoicing with Jesus and his Dad. Dan prayed to find a way to be

with his family, although this was not the way he thought, he was able to spend time with his

family and knew he’d be in heaven soon. He said either way, it will be a win-win.

Dan was preceded in death by his father, Wesley Bridges. His grandparents, Cliff & Mildred

Hale, & Irvin & Lena Bridges.

He is survived by his wife, Jeanie Bridges - Sons, Jordan Bridges & Judson Bridges, -

Step-Daughters, Kristen Goodson and Tori Goodson,-Mother, Sandra Bridges, - Sister, Donna

Alexander & her husband Danny, - Brother, John Bridges & his wife Misty, - Grandchildren,

Peyten Lennon, Presten Lennon, Piper Lennon, Paxten Lennon, Lincoln Daniel and Braylon

is at 3:00 pm at Grace Community Church on Old Jacksonville Hwy. In lieu of flowers, please consider
