Dear Mary,
I was so sorry to read of Justin’s death.
I always enjoyed my conversations with him in the video store; not only was he a treasure chest of knowledge, he was funny and kind. Our deepest condolences to you, Elizabeth, Kate, and Justine and all your grandchildren.

To the Sullivan family, it is with sadness that I am reading the obituary of Justin. I have many wonderful memories of Justin and all the Sullivan’s. If I recall, Justin was in my 4th grade class of 1948-1949. I knew he had diabetes Joanne would remind him of it if someone offered him candy.Robert was watchful also. May His soul be at peace and receive the reward of his Christian life which he lived so well. May God comfort you at this time of your loss. Sincerely, Sr.Mary Mills,(S.Vincent DePaul)

My condolences to Mr. Sullivan’s family. He was one of my most memorable teachers, whose enthusiasm for the subject matter was genuine and infectious.
Greg, Siabh and I are thinking of you, Mary, and all your family. Your husband sounds like he was a wonderful man who did a great deal of good. God bless you! Kathleen Chaplin
