Mildred "Millie" (Lewis) Sullivan

Mildred “Millie” (Lewis) Sullivan, age 87 of Taunton, passed away on February 25, 2025 with her loving family by her side.

She was the beloved wife of the late William E. Sullivan.

Millie was born in Taunton, the daughter of the late John and Emily (Wager) Lewis.

Before retiring, Mrs. Sullivan was employed as secretary at Raytheon Company then worked at her family’s restaurant Lewis Lodge in Taunton, then as a secretary at the Dighton Rehoboth Regional High School.

Millie and her late husband Bill (Sully) enjoyed many decades of golf and friendship at Segregansett Country Club.  She competed for Segregansett in the MA Golf Association women’s state team tournaments.  She loved being a grandmother and was often on the sidelines at her grandchildren’s lacrosse games. Her 2 great grandchildren, who affectionately called her Gram-Gram, always brought her smiles.  An avid Red Sox fan, she was known to stay up late to watch the west-coast games. She also loved to read and do crossword puzzles.
