Comments for “Sullivan, Robert L.

  1. Yes I remember Bob Sullivan who lived on Orchard Ave across the street

    From what was called at the time “The Dancing School.” Bob was always

    Friendly but was much older and did not participate in our games on

    Orchard Avenue…like football, softball, etc.

    Don’t know much about his parents – never saw his Dad outside in the front

    Of his house. He lived near the Talento’s on Orchard. I’ll ask around and

    See what I can find out.
