Among all of her descendents she is recognized as one of the wisest, most loving persons they have ever known and she will be enormously missed by all of them. She was also loved by her many neighbors in the Poet's Woods section of Seaville.
Surviving are her husband Laurence, her children Laurence (Kathy), Joseph, Dennis (Janet), Kathleen, Patricia Albright (John), Denise Kelly (Joseph), Karen, Michael (Carol), and Patrick (Mindy), 23 grand-children and 23 great-grandchildren.

To the entire Sullivan Family: I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. I haven't seen Kass since the 1970's but I have thought of her often over the years. (We were neighbors on Gransback Street). She was a good woman and I admired her for her wisdom and her wit. My thoughts and my prayers are with you all.

Dearest Kathleen and the Sullivan family:
You have been blessed to have your Kathryn. She leaves a legacy for all of you and I am so fortunate that I got to meet her. It was easy to see from where the beauty of your family - internal and external - flowed. May every thought and memory sustain you. You, your father and your entire family and friends remain in my prayers.
Love, Bonnie

Dear Kate,
I didn't know your Mom but her picture is beautiful so I guess I know where you get your beauty and from what I've read about her here, I guess I know where you get your character. I'm sorry for your loss and that of your entire large family. She will live on in all of you.
Deepest sympathy,
Mary Gerngross

I think I can speak for everyone in the 46th Street crowd in Sea Isle that Mrs. Sullivan will be sadly missed. She was a wonderful person and always made everyone feel like part of the extended family.

To The Sullivan Family,
Your mother was a very forward-thinking woman. A woman way ahead of her time. You have all benefitted from her love and wisdom. She opened her home and her heart to all who entered. I know because I spent a lot of time at your house on Gaul Street growing up. She was a beautiful person and she will live on through all of you.
