Eddie Lee Sullivan

A time to be born….

            Eddie Lee Sullivan was born May 31, 1950, to the union of Will and Ethel Sullivan in Elaine, Arkansas.

A time to grow….

Eddie received his education in the state of Arkansas. Eddie did not pursue higher education but instilled in his children that knowledge gives you opportunity. Soon he ventured to Chicago where he served three years with the United State Marine Corps and then served as a police officer.

A time to Mourn….

Matthew 11:28 - 30

Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
