Obituary for Patricia Ann Sullivan (McNary)

Beloved wife, mother and grandmother, Patricia Ann Sullivan passed away on April 8, 2023, at the age of 88. Pat was born in Boston and grew up in the Lower Falls neighborhood of Dorchester. A 1956 graduate of Boston College School of Nursing, Pat dedicated her life to caring for others, first at the Boston Floating Hospital for Children (back when it was still a ship), and later at Bethany Health Center. She delighted in telling her grandchildren stories about her time as a pediatric nurse. As a young woman, Pat enjoyed visiting Cape Cod, where she met the love of her life, John (Jack) Sullivan, and where she ate too many lobster rolls to count. The two were married in 1963 and moved to Millis, MA, where they raised three children. Pat is survived by her children, Mark Sullivan, Stephen Sullivan and Deborah (Lawrence) Kane, her beloved grandchildren, Cameron Sullivan, and Emily and William Kane, her sister Joan Guertler and brother John McNary, and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband and her sister, Brenda Mulkerin.

Funeral services will be held at Roberts Mitchell Caruso Funeral Home, 15 Miller Street, Medfield, MA 02052 on Wednesday, April 12, 2024, 5 PM. Visiting hours will precede the service from 3 PM until 5 PM. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Bethany Health Care Center.
