Picture
Heather Sullivan, 47, of Tewksbury, MA passed away peacefully on July 20th 2020 after fighting a long courageous battle with cancer. 

Heather was a devoted mama to Gianna & Zachary, she cherished her children every day of her life.  She thoroughly enjoyed watching her kids shine, whether it was watching Gianna on stage in the spotlight or Zach on the court shooting hoops, she was their rock and biggest champion.  She smiled no matter what she was going through and loved life by living each day to the fullest.  She will be remembered by so many for her kindness, generosity, free spirit, gift of gab, humor and of course that incredible smile.

Heather is survived by her children, Gianna and Zachary Sullivan of Tewksbury MA, her mother, Linda Pilkington of Malden MA, her sister, Melissa Penta of Malden MA, her brothers, Chad Pilkington of Malden MA and Derek Pilkington of Gardiner ME, several sweet nieces, Amanda, Kayla F., Keara, Brenna, Kayla P., Ella, her precious godson Luca, and many uncles, cousins and dear friends (a.k.a #Heatherstrong tribe).  She is predeceased by her father, Gerard Pilkington (Skip), her Nana & Grampy, and her Auntie Betty.
