Thank you! XO
Thank you! He loved having the same birthday as you – 2 very special people! XO
Bob was a good man. i used to go for coffee with him and my uncle Bill Farress to the LDR.
Mr. Bill is always in my heart! I know that he and my dad are having coffee every morning. Thank you!
Bob was to me always warm and friendly, and upbeat. He had a great sense of humor, and just a real nice guy. Bob was my cousin through my Mother. I will miss seeing him in his Lincoln, and the Pittsburgh Steelers now will be getting some heavenly cheers. Bob was simply a terrific person. My thoughts and prayers go out to Sharon, Terry, Kelly, and his grandchildren and many friends.
Thank you for your kind words – he truly was the best! XO
Thank you! XO
I wanted to send my sympathy to Mrs. Sullivan, Terry and Kelly. I used to be friends with your family when we lived on Freemont and have so many wonderful memories of Mr. Sullivan. He was kind, funny and full of life. And always welcomed me to the house as did you all. I’m so sorry for your loss of this wonderful man. Char (Roth) Weigel

I have such wonderful memories of growing up on Freemont Rd and all the great neighbors we had. Mr Sullivan always had a smile on his face and was nice to everyone. Mr Sullivan moved to my neighborhood so I would still see and talk to him on occasion, still the happy guy he always was. My sympathies to his entire family. May he Rest In Peace.

I have known Bob through my childhood friend, Dorothy. His sister. I was sad to see that he had passed and, especially to Dorothy, send my sympathies.
Thank you!
Thank you!
I was saddened to hear of Mr. Sullivan’s passing. I will remember him for that sense of humor of his! The last time i saw him was at our dr’s office. I must say i was taken aback to see him as i had just been thinking about Scott as i traveled the 490 to 390 split. After i checked in, i turned around and there he was with that wonderful smile and his usual “hiya kel, how are ya doin?”.
I will cherish that last meeting forever! Condolences to the family.
Thank you Kelly! XO
Thank you!
Bob made a long lasting impact on my life. I was Kodak summer help in 1985, and as he said “summer help, and some aren’t”. He took me under his wing and after B trick we went to the CharPit together and chatted and laughed. I will never forget Bob. I can still hear his laugh 35 years later.
Sorry for your loss. Bobbie was a special cousin. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. Fondly Jim and Mary Ann Barry
