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).

The Senior Surge

People often speak wistfully about young people being the future of this country. They certainly are — but let’s take a moment to recognize that the next few decades are actually going to belong to senior citizens. Which makes a group like Seniors Taking Action, founded by Mary Mulvihill of North Haven and Judy Loeb of East Hampton six years ago, even more impactful. Their small gathering of seniors is growing, in size and stature — it now has 1,400 members — and could well become an advocacy group that serves as a voice for those 65 and older.

Estuaries Are a Bargain

Whichever side of the political aisle you sit on, there’s a reality in play in 2025: Government spending is going to be on the chopping block, and only the most compelling arguments are going to save individual investments. Why, then, does federal spending on estuaries seem so precarious? The argument is rock solid, the benefits are clear and demonstrable, and it seems unlikely that the dollars going to places like the Peconic Estuary are raising ire among voters. If this funding is at risk, nothing is sacred. U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand was in Riverhead last week pledging to fight proposed ... by Editorial Board
