Connor John Watkins Page

I met Connor and his lovely wife when I came to live in their neighbourhood in 2019. I would often see him walking his dog and exchange a few words with him. He exuded positivity and kindness. In fact, he showed this side of him on a few occasions when he helped me look for my best friend's old dogs, who would sometimes wander off from a backyard. I learned about his passing from one of our neighbours only recently and was very saddened by this. Our street has lost a gentle soul and will be...

My deepest thoughts and condolences on your immense loss Jen. May his memory be a blessing. So hard to comprehend how such an amazing guy, partner and father was lost so young. Thinking of you all. While we were only together during those great years at Queens, Connor and you made a lasting impact I will never forget. I too am a huge Jays fans (and cancer survivor from Mt Sinai annd Princess Margaret Hospitals) and would have loved to see a game with Connor!

I first met Connor in the context of his role at Drivercheck, about 11 years ago. It was the early days of my company and my partners and I were excited about the opportunity to partner with Drivercheck on an initiative related to medical cannabis. Connor set up the meeting for us with his father at the office in Ayr. I will never forget how welcoming and happy he was when he met me at the front entrance and led me and my partners down to the conference room where Dr. Page was waiting. We...

Many great chats and memories. But I often come back to Connor's positivity and love for baseball and the Jays. It makes me smile when I remember screaming and jumping around the skydome with him right after Bautista hit the walk off (bat flip). Connor defied gravity that day!

I knew Connor for about 12 years, we shared a common vision in the work we did in Health and Safety. Despite the Blue Jays love, we became friends, and I followed his journey from afar through reliable sources. We had not been in touch and I did not want to crowd in. We did correspond a little...he always picked me up versus me supposedly having that "task". The last time I saw Connor in person was in 2017. He and I sat in front of the Fireplace at the Banff Inn with the Medical Director...

My memories of Connor are special ones - moments that were the highlights of the 4 years I was at Queen's and from the sadly too few - but always meaningful - times I saw him afterwards. He was an incredible person who connected so well with others and had a sense of humor that could cut through any moment and brighten a day. This obituary captures so much about the fantastic person he was, and it's so heartwarming to read what a fighter he was, and how special he made things for his kids...

I haven't seen Jen or Connor since we graduated, but this breaks my heart. Thinking of Jen and the boys.
