CHARLES K. SULLIVAN

MR. PRESIDENT: Your Senate committee, appointed to prepare a suitable resolution commemorating the life, character and public service of the late Honorable Charles K. Sullivan, begs leave to submit the following memorial:

Charles K. Sullivan was born in Clifford, Indiana, on August 14, 1908. He was graduated from Township High School there and then studied law for two years in Indianapolis, Indiana.

On March 10, 1940, he was married to Madeline Scott in the Little Brown Church in Nashua, Iowa. To them were born a son, John, and a daughter, Mrs. Milton Rosio.

Mr. Sullivan served the State of Iowa in many ways. He was a former investigator for the Woodbury County Attorney’s office and once worked for the Iowa Tax Commission. In 1941 he served as the President of the Young Republicans. In 1968 he was elected to the Iowa Senate after having served one term in the House of Representatives.

Therefore, Be It Resolved by the Senate of the Sixty-fourth General Assembly of Iowa: That in the passing of the Honorable Charles K. Sullivan, on February 13, 1971, the State has lost an honored citizen and a faithful and useful servant, and the Senate by this resolution would express its appreciation of his service, and tender its sympathy to the members of his family.

Be it Further Resolved: That a copy of this resolution be spread upon the Journal of the Senate and that the Secretary of the Senate be directed to forward an enrolled copy to the family of the deceased.
