To the Douglas and Sullivan Families.

I wish to extend my sincere sympathy on your loss. Nancy was a great person who I spent many happy hours at the Archie's basketball and football games. My daughter knows the Sullivan children well but I only knew Loretta and Bob,(the Mom and Dad), Nancy, Joan and Janice.

What a wonderful family. Bob Sullivan was one of my favorite people. He was a very giving person.

Our sincere sympathy.

Maureen, Bobby, Debby and Mark Watts
