April 24, 1952 - Dec. 30, 2021

Lisa Ann O’Sullivan of East Hampton died on Dec. 30 at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital. The cause was chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. She was 69.

Ms. O’Sullivan “loved to play bingo with her mom and friends,” her family wrote. “They traveled all over the Island looking for a good game.” She was a collector of owl figurines, large and small, and enjoyed crocheting, coloring in works of art, and quilting.

She was born on April 24, 1952, in Southampton to Sidney M. Field and the former Laverne Collum. She grew up on Long Lane in East Hampton and graduated from East Hampton High School. She worked as a waitress, and her nieces fondly remember working with her at an Amagansett restaurant when they were teenagers.

She and her husband, George O’Sullivan, were separated at the time of her death. He survives.

Ms. O’Sullivan is also survived by her brother, James Field, and his wife, Joan Field, of Springs, two nieces, Teresa Soma and Debra Steckowski, both of Georgia, two nephews, Troy Field and Chris Field, both of East Hampton, and her domestic partner, Gus Papas, also of East Hampton.

Ms. O’Sullivan was cremated. A memorial gathering will take place at a later date.

Montauk Chemists Opens, Minus Pharmacy

Frank Calvo, the longtime pharmacist at White’s Drug and Department Store, which closed on Oct. 31, has opened Montauk Chemists on Main Street and is selling over-the-counter merchandise including vitamins and self-care products. One week after an inspection of the store’s pharmacy, however, he is still awaiting New York State approval to operate it.

Slow Start at New Gosman’s

In some ways, Gosman’s Dock, one of Montauk’s few remaining family-owned and operated businesses until its October 2024 sale, closely resembles the complex of restaurants and shops long revered by locals and visitors alike. In other ways, though, it is markedly different under its new ownership.
