Robert shared a beautiful life with his late wife, Bonnie Bradley, whose memory he held close to his heart every day. Together, they built a loving family, raising two wonderful children who became the center of his world. His son, Kenneth Bradley, along with his wife Heather Tobin, and his daughter, Joann Bradley, with her husband Mike White, were the pride and joy of Robert's life. He delighted in watching his family grow, welcoming eight grandchildren into his warm embrace: Kolby Bradley, Korey Bradley, Adrian Zielinski, Zachary Zielinski, Aubrea Brown, Damian Brown, Braxton Loveland, and Brodie Loveland.

His heart found solace in the serene landscapes of Maine, where he often sought peace and reflection. As we remember Robert Bradley, we celebrate a life well-lived, filled with love, laughter, and the joy of family.
