Robert Lamb Bradley Obituary

MARBLEHEAD - MARBLEHEAD - Robert Lamb Bradley, 76, of Marblehead, MA, passed away peacefully after a long illness.

A lifelong resident of Marblehead, he was born in Salem, MA.

Bob was the son of S. Whitney Bradley and Mary Louise Rumsey and was preceded in death by his son, Robert. He is survived by his beloved wife, Gabrielle and their son, Alex and his wife Elizabeth. He was a proud grandfather of William and James Bradley. He is also survived by his brother, Stephen Bradley. He leaves his best friend, Tony Bond, with whom he shared decades of stories, laughs, and unwavering friendship.

Bob attended the Glover School, Holderness School, and Denison University, where he lettered in both lacrosse and soccer. He later earned his J.D. from Suffolk Law School and a master's degree in taxation from Boston University.

Bob began his legal career in sole practice before co-founding the Lynn-based law firm Bradley, Moore, Primason, Cuffe & Weber, where he practiced for over 40 years. Known for his integrity and compassion, Bob formed deep, lasting relationships with his clients—often delivering holiday flowers to them and even remembering the local parking officer with a gift every Christmas.

He was an active supporter of the Boys & Girls Club of Lynn, a former Corporator and Trustee of the Eastern Bank, a former Director of the Lynn Home for Young Women as well as the Lynn Home for the Elderly and a generous contributor to local charitable causes.

Bob was happiest on the tennis courts and in the pool at the Eastern Yacht Club, which he joined in 1978, and at Tedesco Country Club. He loved skiing the slopes of New England, Vail and Whistler and spent summers boating aboard Storm, the family's cherished boat. He was also a fixture at the YMCA, where his morning workouts were part of his daily rhythm.

He often said he had traveled everywhere he wanted to go—and did so with gratitude and joy, especially alongside his wife, exploring many of the world's most beautiful places.
