John C. "Jack" Connolly

Jackie was one of my first playmates. My family lived next door to the Connollys on Pine Street in New Orleans. I remember the "clubhouse" Jackie's father built for him, from inside that mini house Jackie, Claude, the son of their maid, and I planned our neighborhood adventures. This was back in the 1940s, but I still remember Jackie as a fun playmate who was just next door. I also remember a little about Kathleen, but she was younger. I don't remember Patty, though I vaguely remember a baby....

Still missing my brother more than ever. Even though I moved away, we still called each other. And I visited when I could. Thanks to Brian and Kelly hosting a reunion for my brother and I at your house. Love and prayers to you.

Dear, Pam.

I can't begin to count the endless memories and deep belly laughs Jack provided us through the years. He was an original and a treasured friend. We think of you and Jack often and it is always with the great joy. Please know Harvey and I are praying for you and the children. Lovingly, Casey

I’ll always remember the laughter and the great MUSIC!

Words could never describe Jack Connolly. He was my buddy growing up, more like a brother than cousin. He was the funniest and most entertaining person I have ever known. My sympathies to Pam, Brian, Jennifer, Kathleen, Patty and the entire family. His is a void that can never be replaced.

No one in life made me laugh more than my Cousin Jack. FAIR WINDS & FOLLOWING SEAS Shipmate.

My heart and prayers to the family. When I was a kid Mr. Jack would always say "Good Morning World," something I never forgot. Bigger than life personality and a love of music. When the parents had a party they always pulled out a homemade Jack cassette tape. He will be missed. RIP

Jack was very close to our Family as he worked with my step-father, Leroy Landry at Blue Cross and was one the the most fun loving persons ever. Our Sympathy goes out to the Connolly Family for their tremendous loss. RIP Jack.
