Tommy was born to Redmond and Juna Bell Sullivan and was a resident of the Burnside Community most of his life. He attended Bloomo and Burnside Community Schools. He was a very talented and widely known Brick-Mason. Tommy was a man with impeccable work ethic; he was known as a extremely hard worker. He loved to hunt, fish, trap, collect chainsaws and enjoyed anything outdoors, especially sitting in his rocker listening to music. One of his biggest joys though was raising his rabbits and chickens and sharing the eggs with his family and friends. He never complained and never said a bad word about anyone.
