Your Father was a good man and it was an honor to know him. I always felt like he was my Father as well. I will always cherish the memories of him in my heart and he will be sadly missed.

To the Sullivan family- I didn't know your father personally, only with him shopping at the store I work at, Market Basket in Rochester. He was always a very pleasant man to talk with. As was your mom when she shopped there. You had 2 very special people as parents. God Bless them and God Bless you. May God bring you all comfort in this time of sorrow.

Charles Sullivan was a fine man. I had the pleasure of knowing him as "Uncle Charlie" as he and his wife Margaret ("Aunt Maggie") were two of my parent's closest friends. May God bless his soul and all should find comfort in knowing Charlie is now with our Lord, beside his bride Maggie, and joining his family and dear friends like Adrienne & Ernie. My warmest wishes and condolences go out to Charlie's entire family, with a special prayer for my dear friend Jimmy. Peace!

I have the utmost respect for Charles Sullivan. The greatest memory I have of him is he brought dignity to the Wakefield Police Department with professional skill and leadership when it was needed most. It was my special pleasure for which I am ever grateful to have chatted with Charley from time to time as he got his hair cut in my barbershop. I'm glad I knew you, Charley.

To the Sullivan family, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your father. I had the honor of working with him on the Police dept. during the 80's. Not only was Charlie a great boss, he was a great friend. He will be truly missed.
