The Olympics were always a personal goal — even before Casey’s days at Bridgewater High School. Her parents, Mike & Jill (left) always believed it would happen for her. Casey now lives in North Carolina with her husband, Chris Mirabelli, where she plays for the North Carolina Courage
“We knew this was her first Olympics, but certainly not her last,” said Lucy Zimmerman, owner of Roman Jewelers. “We wanted the necklace to reflect that — it’s a tribute to this incredible chapter in her life and career. The necklace presentation took place right here in the store, and it was a true community event. The excitement in Bridgewater was palpable, and we even posted a congratulatory message on our sign outside the intersection of Commons Way. Cars were honking, and people were waving. It was so much fun to see
the town come together to celebrate Casey’s achievement,” Zimmerman shared. “Casey’s look is unmistakable, and she was recognized by young fans who stopped by to meet her. It was heartwarming.” Designing the necklace was no small feat. With Casey off the grid in Paris, the Roman Jewelers team worked under a tight deadline to create the perfect piece. “We couldn’t decide between white or yellow gold, but in the end, yellow was the perfect choice. It matches her gold medal!” Zimmerman said.
Casey’s success is shared by her entire family, including her proud parents, Jill and Mike Murphy of Bridgewater. Their support has been integral to her journey, and it was only fitting that they were part of this special celebration. As Bridgewater’s golden girl, Casey Murphy has made her hometown incredibly proud, and Roman Jewelers was honored to be part of this momentous occasion. Congratulations, Casey, on your Olympic journey. Roman Jewelers and Bridgewater are cheering you on — now and always!
