Timothy James Sullivan, Jr. passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, the 16th of June 2022, a week after his 60th birthday.
Tim was born In Syracuse, New York on the 12th of June 1962, to Patricia and Timothy Sr. and grew up proud of his Irish heritage as a descendent of the Stone Throwers.
In high school, Tim was a captain on the football, basketball, and baseball teams at Homer high school and went on to play all three sports in college.
Tim matriculated to Syracuse University where he received a BS and MBA from the Whitman School of Management and became a lifelong fan of Syracuse athletics.
After college, Tim began an illustrious 40 year career in energy that began as a meter reader at the Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, and later included co-leading the North American Commodity Business at Deutsche Bank, co-founding private equity fund Quantum Utility Generation, and finished as the President and leader of carbon-focused SeQuest.
Tim will be remembered as a dedicated family man who used every spare moment to soak in lacrosse with his sons ranging from camps, club teams, and an annual trip to the NCAA lacrosse national championship.
Tim was revered for his ability to control a room with his outspoken voice, iconic laugh, analytical mind, and gregarious storytelling.
Tim is survived by his wife of 27 years and the love of his life, Emily McKay Sullivan; and his two sons, Connor and Reese Sullivan, who were his greatest joys. He is also survived by his parents, whom he adored, Patricia and Timothy Sullivan Sr.; his brothers and sisters, Jim Sullivan, Michael Sullivan, Kelly Sullivan Reppenhagen (Peter), and Colleen Sullivan Gambitta (Robert); four precious nieces; his sisters-in-law Mary McKay Duncan, Elizabeth McKay Webster and Mallory McKay Callaway, and their children and families who thought he hung the moon.
