Kathleen O'Sullivan Obituary
Tim preceded Terry in death in 2011.
Terry was a homemaker and beloved mother of Michael and Patrick O'Sullivan and grandmother of Christopher O'Sullivan, Thomas O'Sullivan, Sean O'Sullivan, Steven Christianson of Toronto, and the late Kathryn O'Sullivan of Los Angeles.

She enjoyed painting and travelling and will be remembered for her quick wit, sharp sense of humor, and her selflessness. She always thought of others before herself.
Terry's sister Anne preceded her in death. In addition to her sons and grandchildren, Terry is survived by her sister Gabrielle of Victoria, BC, and a large network of cousins, relatives, and lifelong friends in England, Canada and the United States.
Terry passed away in Los Angeles on January 10, 2023, aged 98.
Her funeral will be held at 11 AM, on Feb 10th, 2023 at St. James the Less Catholic Church at : 4625 Dunsmore Ave, La Crescenta, California 91214

I met Terry when she came from England. My parents were very good friends of Tim and Terry. Terry was my babysitter when Michael was a baby. Our families stayed in touch no matter where Terry lived and visited them often. The last time I saw Terry was when we took the boat to Catalina for the day. My brother was living in Pasadena and my mom and I were visiting him. It was a wonderful fun filled day with Tim and Terry. Terry sent me a beautiful birthday letter last year with a picture of me with her in 1964. Terry was a wonderful woman who made everyone happy around her.
