It is with much sorrow that we announce the passing of our son and brother, Bradford “Brad” P. Robbins, who left us suddenly on November 18.

Brad was born in Wilmington, Delaware, on April 13, 1969. He later moved to California and, in recent years, made his home with his brother in Apache Junction, Arizona.

A devoted Philadelphia Flyers fan, Brad never missed a chance to talk hockey. He had a deep love for race cars, football, and astronomy-interests that reflected both his curiosity and his lively spirit. He was employed at Safeway Grocers at the time of his passing.

Brad is survived by his mother, Diane Robbins, and his stepfather, Robert Cable, both of California; his brothers Mark (Pam) of Arizona and Michael (Michelle) of California; and his stepbrother Matthew (Michelle) of Arizona, and 2 half sisters , Lindsey Robbins-O’brien (Shawn), and Courtney Robbins, both of delaware. He is also remembered by many cousins, nephews, nieces, aunts, and uncles. And an extended family of cousins in Italy and Switzerland.

Brad was followed in passing shortly after by his uncle, Michael “Chick” Chicklo, and our family takes comfort in knowing they journey on together. He was predeceased by his grandparents, Michael and Dorothy (Pierce) Chicklo (Ciccaglione), and Bradford and Lucy (Terranova) Robbins, and his father Bradford P. Robbins, Sr. All of Delaware.

Brad will be remembered for his kindness, his humor, and the way he cared for those around him. His presence will be deeply missed.
