Kevin J. Sullivan Sr.

Sullivan, Kevin J., Sr. of Quincy, died March 6, 2019.

Kevin was born in CT to Elizabeth Conboy and Edwin Sullivan.

Kevin attended school in Scituate, MA where the family lived for many years.

Kevin was very talented with his hands and was well known for his wood working talents including many of his projects, some still unfinished ones, that remain in our house.  Kevin was a hard working man and he deeply loved his wife of 44 years Mary, his children, grandchildren and great grand children. Kevin also loved being involved with his children and grandchildren’s activities.  He would be known to walk around his N Quincy neighborhood with his best friend, Jack the greyhound. He also liked other outside activities that included biking, hiking, and recently sprung a strong liking for kayaking with his grandson Dylan. Kevin also later in life found Tae Kwon Do and was actively involved with classes in the N Quincy area and enjoyed spending time with his TKD family.

Kevin also enjoyed spending time with his extended “family” through Quincy Track Club Kevin will be greatly missed by all but mostly by his wife who has been with his during all of his years including his recent decline in health.  Mary loved Kevin with all of her heart and he was the love of her life.  She describes him as her back bone and a huge source of support to her through their journeys.
