Why I'm Irish

This is my grandpa, Walter Charles Sullivan. I'm to the left in the picture, my little sister Jennie is on the right. A few generations back Grandpa's descendants came from Ireland and when they did they changed the name from O'Sullivan to Sullivan to make a brand new start in America. Grandpa loved St. Patrick's Day and I do too.

My other sister's name is Patsy Colleen and my brother's name is Mike.

Happy St. Patrick's Day from this Irish girl. Diane
