Br. Killian (John) O'Sullivan

I offer my sincere condolences to the family, De La Salle confreres and friends of Bro. Killian on his recent sad passing. As a past pupil of Bro. Killian's at St. John's DLS College, Ballyfermot, Dublin during the 1990's, I remember him as a gifted and dedicated French teacher who wanted the best for his pupils. Beyond the classroom Bro. Killian's presence was felt throughout Ballyfermot where he
was a familiar figure. He must have walked every street in the area and would always stop for a chat and a joke with pupils and their parents. He was a smiling, kind-hearted gentleman with a good word for everyone he met. May he rest in peace.

Rest in Peace Br Killian. Your mission resonates amongst the past pupils of DLS Waterford who, on hearing of your sad passing, are fondly remembering you collectively at this time of writing from multiple continents.

Sincere condolences to the O’Sullivan family and the De La Salle Brothers on the sad passing of Br Killian. I recall vividly giving him a lift from Tuosist to Dublin in the early 80s when it took about 6+ hours and the conversation was all about Tuosist, Kerry & football. One of lifes true gentlemen. May he rest in peace!

Fond memories of Brother Killian from school days in De La Salle, Bagenalstown. May he rest in peace.

R.I. P Brother Kilian. Thank you for the great holidays together and for your kindness I miss Brothers Tim and Kilian

I'm sorry to hear of Bro. Killian's death, and so soon after his brother. My sympathies to the O'Sullivan family and the DLS communities. He taught me in Muinebheag in 1954 and 1955. He was always lovely to meet and on each occasion he always expressed his gratitude that my sisters called to see him when visiting Rome. When teaching in Muinebheag he played with Bro. Jerome for Co. Carlow, both as A. N. Other. A couple of years ago he said "how stupid that was". We were always proud of him.

Sincere Sympathies to the De La Salle Brothers and all the extended O'Sullivan family on your great loss at this very sad and difficult time.

My sincere condolences to the O'Sullivan family, and to Brother Killian's confreres, students, and colleagues, in his beloved De la Salle community. I met Brother Killian through golf, which was but one of the several activities that consumed his every waking hour. While navigating the 18 holes with him was always enjoyable, it was the time we spent playing the 19th that created so many fond memories! He was simply the best of company. He loved a good story, had a wry wit, as well as his own store of brilliant tales to embellish any conversation. A legend! Ní bheidh a leithéid ann arís. Rest in Peace, Brother Killian.
