MY EXAMPLE PROJECT: Remembering Paul D. Sullivan
Candidates: 1. (Papa) Sullivan 2. (Aunt) Francis Dunbar 3. Carl Jones
PERSONAL REFLECTION
I admire Papa Sullivan because he was a warm, thoughtful person who succeeded in ways that benefited other people.
The ways I feel connected to Papa are many. He was a part of my life for over 30 years. Family trips and vacations usually included him and Grandma.
I would like to know more about his early life and his relationship with Grandma before they had kids.
Homework: confirm sources - my grandmother and my father are willing to be interviewed about him and his life.
