To the Sullivan family and to his business family,
We, too, were shocked by the news of Ray's death. We came to Ray because the larger family had always done their tax business with him. We have been priviledged to know him. Our deepest sympathies are extended to you.

I had only known Ray a brief couple of years, through our affiliation at St. Francis of Assisi parish and Sportsplex health facility. He was a unique and special person. Always approachable, we would discuss the days events. He will be very much missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Nancy and family.

Ray Sullivan Family
I just heard of Ray's death and wanted to express our sympathy. My parents, Joe and Rosemary Fruth were friends of May and Joe for years and mom just died in December. They would always go to Ray's fundraising dinners and were so fond and proud of him. Our prayers are with your family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. Ray has been doing my taxes for as long as I've been employed. He has provided guidance over the years and was simply a really nice person to know. He always added that personal touch of genuine interest in what I had been doing over each and every year. This is a loss of a dear friend.

We were both shocked and saddened to hear of Ray's death. Even though we moved to Arizona he remained our taxman and our friend as did his mother Mabel our old neighbor. We're sure there is a spot in Heaven for this kind man.

It was certainly my pleasure to know Ray for over twenty years, mainly on a professional level, but on many occasions we had the opportunity to share other moments. We enjoyed using Sullivan and Sullivan to do our taxes and looked forward to the Spring Sertoma Dinner. Ray we will miss you, as I am sure many will. We will continue to miss you each time we continue to use the firm you started. Bless you and your family in this time of sadness. May the gates of Heaven be open awaiting your arrival.
