Judith “Judy” Bradley, 79, of Brookfield, CT, passed away on November 15, 2025, in Danbury. Judy was a remarkable woman whose strength, courage, and unwavering spirit carried her through a fierce, 35-year battle with breast and ovarian cancer. She faced every challenge head-on with toughness, savage humor, and a steadfast love for her family.
Born on April 23, 1946, in Brooklyn, NY, to Alice and James Sullivan. She graduated from Erasmus High School and later made her home in Lindenhurst, NY, where she spent 33 years raising her three daughters—her greatest pride and joy.
In 2003, she moved to New Fairfield, CT to be closer to her cherished grandchildren, who were the light of her life. A dedicated and talented Executive Secretary throughout her career, Judy most recently worked at the New Fairfield Town Hall in the Parks & Recreation Department, where she made a lasting impression on colleagues and neighbors alike.
Judy is preceded in death by her parents; her beloved sister, Carolyn; and her brother, Kevin. She is survived by her three daughters, Kari (John) Lombardo, Tricia (Kevin) Quinn, and Jamie Carlucci; and by the grandchildren she adored: Shannon McCourt, Kerrigan Quinn, Braden Quinn, Alice Lombardo, Katherine Lombardo, Gemma and Gavin, along with their father Mike Carlucci. She also leaves behind her brother, Jim (Ceil) Sullivan; many nieces and nephews to whom she was exceptionally close; countless extended family members and in-laws whom she loved dearly; and her loyal cat, Oliver.
Family meant everything to Judy, and she kept everyone laughing. Her quick wit, sharp humor, and perfectly timed one-liners became the soundtrack of every gathering, creating memories her family will cherish forever.
A Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, November 21, 2025, at St. Edward the Confessor Parish in New Fairfield, CT at 12:30pm. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Ann’s Place https://www.annsplace.org/donate#donate.
Judy’s family extends their heartfelt gratitude to Dr. George Zahrah, Melissa Fairbairn, PA, and the dedicated nurses and staff at Praxair Cancer Center for their exceptional care and compassion.
She will be remembered always for her strength, her genuineness and the deep love she had for her family.
