John "Jack" Cullen Esquire, was a Boston native who passed away at the age of 76 in 2018 after a brief illness.

Cullen certainly lived an incredible life from attending Northeastern University, then writing for the Boston Globe while attending Suffolk Law School. With a successful career, Cullen also managed to be a successful family man as a husband, father, and grandfather.

With all that was on his plate, Cullen was a massive Firefighter enthusiast. So much so he built a full-sized replica of Boston's Engine 21 Firehouse in Thornton, New Hampshire.

That home is now for sale and is incredibly fun and impressive!
