Obituary of Timothy Paul Sullivan

Timothy Paul Sullivan, of Crandall, Texas, passed away peacefully on April 25, 2024.  Tim was a loving, generous, kind soul who took pride in his roles as a father, son, husband, brother, friend and coach.

Tim was born in Irving, Texas on December 1, 1964, to George Patrick Sullivan and Lovey Christine Stanley, the youngest of eight children.  He grew up attending St. Luke's Catholic Church and school, and graduated from Nimitz High School.  He loved playing baseball and spending summers at Camp Sweeney.

Tim was a proud Christian and loved God and Jesus Christ with all his heart. He was a proud father, whose face lit up every time he spoke of his children. Tim enjoyed his time as a youth soccer, basketball, and baseball coach, coaching his son and daughter's teams. As they grew up he was always in the stands cheering them on in sports and dance.  He was so proud of all their accomplishments and the kind, thoughtful adults they have become.  In his free time, he enjoyed rooting for the Texas Rangers and spending time outside, whether it be trips to the beach or mountains, or doing yard work on the weekends.

Tim is survived by his wife of 24 years, Deirdre, their son Zachary and daughter Sarah; His mother, Christine Sullivan of Coppell, Texas; His sister Kathleen Austin of Dallas, Texas; His sister Christine Vaughn and husband Jeff of Keller, Texas; His brother Luke Sullivan of Irving, Texas; His sister Eileen Smith of Fort Worth, and numerous nieces and nephews, and cousins.

Tim is preceded in death by his father, George Sullivan; His brother David Sullivan, his brother Mike Sullivan, his brother Andy Sullivan, and his stepfather Mike Matragrano.

Tim will live on in the hearts and memories of all that knew and loved him.
