Anne Bronson Bradley, born in Roslyn, NY to Lucy (nee Glazebrook) and George C. Bradley, died peacefully in Ribiers, France where she was pursuing her passion of paragliding. She is survived by her sister Christine M. Wooding of Maui, HI, her brother George C. Bradley, Jr. (Spencer Boyd) of Chester, CT, her nieces Martha M. Stockhausen (Robert), Beatrice B. Bradley (Jarrett Pezzo), and her aunt Anne G. Kehoe, as well as by many devoted cousins and her partner John Bradley Dugan. She was pre-deceased by her parents and her brother Ciaran Mercier.

Annie graduated from Paul D. Schreiber High School in Port Washington, NY and from the University of Vermont. She loved her vocation of landscaping and gardening, and over the years she worked in that field in Hopkinton, MA, and Sagaponack, NY. While living in Sagaponack she was active in the community and served as an EMT with the Bridgehampton Fire Department. She retired from her landscaping business in 2013 and moved to Maui to pursue paragliding.

Annie discovered paragliding in Bariloche, Argentina and engaged in it with great enthusiasm in places around the world, including: Colombia, Morocco, Chile, Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, Slovenia, and several locations in the U.S.

She will be remembered for her generosity, laughter and wit; for her love and care of her family; and for her appreciation of good music, a good beer, and a bubbling glass of prosecco. Her memory will be dear to all who had the good fortune to know her.

A remembrance for Anne Bradley will be held on September 28th, 2024 from 12-3pm at 116 Lawrence Road, Fairfield, CT. Memorial donations may be made to Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, Inc., PO Box 2616, East Hampton, NY 11937 (a 501(c)(3) organization).

Shining Examples

A glimpse back in time to the 19th century would reveal, in most of the East End’s hamlets and villages, small general stores, often containing a local post office, where people living in the neighborhood could purchase groceries and necessary supplies — and, later on, gasoline for a growing number of automobiles. Over the years, many of those general stores disappeared, making way for larger business districts and developments, especially as the South Fork grew into a flourishing tourist destination. Big-box stores eventually arrived, challenging even those downtown shopping destinations. But it was those general stores, mixed with a thriving ... by Editorial Board

Staying Alive

And, in the same vein, Sag Harbor Village’s holiday weekend “Keep It Local” shopping event was a success, and it’s a model that should be repeated more frequently in the village — and in every other village and hamlet shopping district on the South Fork. It was the Sag Harbor Chamber of Commerce that undertook the very simple campaign to encourage people not just to walk the streets of Sag Harbor but to cross the threshold and actually spend some money. Because the village has no issue with foot traffic these days, but its merchants are struggling. That’s the theme ... by Editorial Board
