Steven Michael Bridges, 29, of Danville passed away on Tuesday, January 19, 2021 at his residence. Born in Danville on July 14, 1991, he was the son of Michelle Curtis Bridges and Steven Thomas Bridges. Michael was known for his love of the ocean and especially Nags Head in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. From sunrise until sunset you could find him walking the beaches collecting shells, out in the water surfing, and spending time with his family flying kites. Many in the community knew him from the skate park at Dan Daniel Memorial Park. Skateboarding became his refuge at a young age. Michael was known for his free spirit and that translated into every activity he poured his soul into. He worked for Virginia International Raceway and Mama Possum’s Restaurant. His greatest passions included cooking, surfing, skateboarding, and being at VIR. In lieu of flowers, the family will be donating to causes in his name.
