Sullivan Family,
I worked on the Norwich Police Auxiliary with Teddy in late 60's. Then used to see him frequently when I worked full-time on the PD. Great, gentle guy, with a wonderful sense of humor. Remember visiting him and family when they lived on 3rd floor above Ted's Luncheonette. GOD bless his soul.
