Jerry SullivanSue, Sorry for your lose. I remember your dad from the grocery store and St.Anne’s. He was always cordial and helpful especially to young funeral directors who would make a wrong turn in the lower level of the hospital and wind up in Purchasing Dept.instead of the Addmitting Dept. He never gave directions, he would always say “give me a minute I’ll take you over there”
