My dad, Tom Sullivan passed away from a tobacco related illness at the age of 73. A victim of the lies and manipulative marketing tactics of the tobacco industry, he started smoking at the age of 13. He left my mom, his beloved wife of 50 years, 5 children and 9 grandchildren behind. I walk in the Westchester, NY Lung Force Walk every year in memory of my dad and in hopes that one day tobacco illness will be a thing of the past.
Thanks for joining me in the fight to end tobacco illness.
