Please accept our deepest sympathy on the loss of Terry. He and my father Jack were childhood friends. I remember the stories my dad would share with me about their many adventurous times especially their trip to California in 1958. Now they are together again. Dr. Sullivan will truly be missed by all. Our prayers will remain with you always.

Dr. Sullivan was an intergral part of all of our lives for so many years and he will certainly be missed.
I know that for many of us, we owe him a great deal as he believed in us as candidates for residency as well always seemed to enjoy his time w/us (both in and out of the hospital). For that I know I will always be grateful. He will be missed.
