Michael "Mike" Lawrence Sullivan and sometimes affectionately called "Sully", age 73, of Englewood, Florida passed on to the Lord on October 14, 2021. He was born December 4, 1947, in Chicago, Illinois to the late Lawrence & Marie Sullivan. Michael was a man who truly loved the Lord and was devoted to his family and friends. An extremely bright man who loved to tell jokes and who was successful in business. He is known for his amazing Donald Duck impression that made his grandchildren & great-grandchildren giggle. He obtained official Irish citizenship and will be remembered for his Irish eyes and gregarious laughter especially when watching "Young Frankenstein". He would often pray throughout the day and night and his favorite hymn was "Let There Be Peace On Earth". Some of his hobbies were reading, fishing, playing the piano, cooking, gardening, fine dining, and golf. Michael was also known for his gift of hospitality. He will be missed.
