Obituary: Leonard G. Bradley (Skip)
Leonard G. Bradley (Skip)
Dec. 11, 1936 to March 29, 2016
Skip was born in Lynn, Massachusetts on Dec. 11, 1936 and went to Lynn English High School and graduated in 1954.
He worked as an industrial engineer for Philips Norelco Co. in Lynn before he met and married his wife Shirley of 53 years. They had a son, Scott and moved to Ipswich, Massachusetts before moving to Breckenridge in 1990.
He taught skiing back east at Wildcat Mountain in New Hampshire where he made many lifelong friends and continued as a ski instructor at the Breckenridge Ski Resort for 24 years where he made many more exceptional friends.
Skip loved to surf back east and loved his Fall motorcycle trips all over Colorado. He also loved riding his dirt bike in the woods.
Skip will be remembered for his great sense of humor and will really be missed by all who knew him.
He leaves his wife, Shirley, and his son, Scott, daughter-in-law Kim, and two granddaughters, Nina and Anouk of Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
It was his wish to be cremated and there will be no services.
