PAUL ANTHONY SULLIVAN Jr.

Paul Anthony Sullivan, Jr. May 5, 1964 - September 17, 2012 Paul died September 17th from a hard fought battle with cancer. Through excruciating treatments he was courageous while striving for independence. Today we share memories of a venturesome young man who loved life. Paul's greatest joy was that of being a father. His sun rose and set around daughter, Morgan Ellyse, and granddaughter, Addison May. Together they shared laughter with nephews and nieces, John, Jr., Kirsten, Noah, Tea and Luca. Above all, Paul could be counted on not only in personal commitments, but also in selfless work ethics. He was 31 years with Safeway, most recently in Arizona. Paul is survived by his parents, Paul and Merrie of Tacoma; and brothers, John (Tricia) of Fircrest, Michael (Yasuyo) of Japan, and David (Masumi) of Mercer Island. From a very early age Paul was a motorcycle enthusiast. He started trail riding with the Tacoma Trail Cruisers and later joined the Victory Riders Motorcycle Club. Believing in God's promise of everlasting life, Paul is reunited with grandparents Edward and Grace Forslin, and Theodore and Florence Sullivan. Memorial plans will be announced at a later time. "Remembering me means I left some part of who I am on who you are. It means even after I die you can still see my face, hear my voice, and speak to me in your heart. As long as you remember me, I am never lost."
