I am saddened to learn of Jim´s passing. I look back fondly at those fun, sunny, beach filled days at Quonnie. All of the Sullivan family are in my thoughts during this time.

I am heartbroken to learn of Jim´s passing. I still treasure working together at the Providence Center Mobile Crisis team those many years ago and the insights he passed on to our team. My sincere condolences to the family.

My friend, Jim. You will be sorely missed. I was so fortunate to know you even for a short time. You are an inspiration to so many because of your compassion and intelligence and love. I will always remember our tours of your garden in Duxbury. Your friend, Sam

I am so sorry for your loss. I worked at UCONN Medical School and knew Jim well during his time there. He was a wonderful person, smart, caring, funny with so much to give.

A Truly Amazing Man, I'll always remember his warmth, smile and humor throughout the hospital RIP Jim and prayers to the family. You will be missed by All
