Sullivan's Truck, Auto & Collision will host a 40th anniversary celebration Nov. 15 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Open to the community, the event will include food and drinks, live music, activities for kids and raffle prizes.

Meet the owners

Founder Danny Sullivan runs the auto shop with his son, co-owner Michael Sullivan, and daughter, Kelly Sullivan McGriff, who oversees business development.

Danny Sullivan began his career as a technician in 1977. From 1981-83, he ran an Exxon station lube center in Kingwood where he was recognized as the No. 1 technician in the nation, McGriff said in an Oct. 23 email. After Exxon moved their business model from gas station mechanic shops to convenience stories, Danny Sullivan opened Sullivan's Advanced Paint & Body in 1985. Today, the shop is known as Sullivan's Truck, Auto & Collision.
