July 2023 — We lost a roommate brother: John Sullivan (aka Rog, aka Johnny, aka Sully)
Here's Rog's official obit, defiorefuneral.com/obituaries/2281/john-sullivan
I threw this page together, so we'll have pics to visit and remember Rog whenever we want.
thanks...yow, bill

In 1980, we were four Illini freshman roommates at Lundgren 222: Bill, Rog, Servy, and Tommy. Lundgren was an "overflow dorm", which meant the four of us shared a two-person dorm room: two desks, two closets, two bunkbeds. As crazy as things were...it all worked.
The bond of that year together is strong. At times, we've gone many years in between meetings; that hasn't mattered. Our Lundgren 222 friendship has lasted 43 years now...and counting.
Rog, man. You will be missed.
Some pics are mine. Some are from Tommy. They're mostly in chronological order. But nuts to order. Click on the pic to make it BIG.
