To Virginia's children
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. Please accept Marty and my condolences. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. I remember coming to your parents' home in Hancock when I was attending Suomi College. I always felt welcome and your mom made me feel right at home.

Dear Sullivan Family
The Harwood family expresses our deepest sympathy! We have fond memories of growing up together, sleep overs and watching out parents laugh together.
Your mother was a kind soul with always a loving word to share. I have one of her water colors that she gave to my mother. I think of you all often as it is front and center in our dinning room.
I'm sure she will be missed greatly but I know she is enjoying her reunion in heaven with all the other jokers! Such fond memories. I hope you find peace in those memories.
In kindness and warmth,
Mary Jo and siblings

Dear Marie, Patty, Alice and extended family members,
What a beautiful tribute to your mom. She would have truly loved the views and nature shown from Michigan to Duluth. I enjoyed seeing her when you brought her into Bagley's. I will be thinking about you all as you progress through this time of sorrow, and yet peace in her new presence.

Virginia Sullivan was one of my favorite people at the Church of the Resurrection. She was always so friendly and her smile lit up a room! Her faith was strong and true and she lived her faith by example. I know when I think of her, her memory will always make me smile. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends, I wish you all God's peace. Enjoy your new wings Virginia, you earned them years ago!
Sincerely,
Anita Marsy-Bosley

Marie, Patty and family,
You are all in my thoughts at this difficult time. I will never forget meeting your mom along the Grandma's Marathon route in lakeside, when Haley ran the marathon. Then meeting you all down in Canal Park as we watched Haley cross the finish line. Haley loved caring for your mom at St. Ann's as well. "Virg" was always up for an adventure. Take care and you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Loran, Julie and girls
