Connor Neshe Obituary

Connor R. Neshe, a caring, shining light in our lives, passed away peacefully in his sleep from unknown medical complications on October 20, 2019 at the age of 18. Born in Framingham on January 12, 2001, he was the beloved son of Bob and Dana (Mastovsky) Neshe of Framingham. He was a freshman at Springfield College where he was also part of the men's tennis team - something which had been his dream. Connor graduated from Framingham High School in 2019, where he played on the boy's tennis team and was selected as Team Captain his senior year. He was also a member of the Robotics Team. Connor was deeply committed to tennis and worked at the Longfellow Club as both a camp counselor and clinic coach, teaching little ones to play the game he adored. Connor will be forever missed everyday by his parents, Bob and Dana of Framingham; his grandparents, Ivan and Dana Mastovsky of Natick, and Ellen Neshe of Framingham; his aunts and uncles James and Debra Neshe of Framingham, David and Karen Mastovsky of Marion, and Michael and Marie Neshe of Florida; his cousins Adam, Bridget, Heather, Alex, Emma and Drew and their families; and many friends and teammates. Family and friends are invited to a celebration of Connor's Life on Monday, November 4, 2019, at 1:30 p.m. at the First Parish in Framingham Unitarian Universalist, 24 Vernon Street, Framingham.

I was the Young Adult Librarian at Framingham Public Library at the time Connor attended the McAuliffe Charter School. He came over to the library almost every day after school with a bunch of classmates, and I remember him well as a sweet, gentle boy with the warmest brown eyes. We talked about his fencing tournaments and he teased me about my new orange Prius C, telling me he was disappointed in my choice of a car! More than any conversations we had, I recall the image of a loving teen who was well liked by his peers. I found a photo of him with a group of the other kids who came over from the charter school, and I'll upload it to this website. My heart goes out to Connor's family. Sincerely, Marcy Maiorana, Framingham Public Library

I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to my Cousin Robert Neshe and his family, my Aunt Ellen Neshe and Robert's brothers, Michael and Jimmy Neshe and families. I am so sorry that I was unable to attend Connor's Celebration of Life. It is difficult and painful to lose a child, so young, especially one who was so accomplished. It made me so sad to hear the new.
Please accept my prayers and healing thoughts,to help you with your loss. May Connor Rest in Peace among the Angels.

To Connors family,
I did not know Connor. My son and Connor were roommates this summer on their trip to New Zealand, etc. Logan spoke very highly of your sons character and kindness. What a great young man. Im so glad our sons became friends albeit for way too brief a time. Our deepest sympathies to you all. He will always be with you.

My son, Evan, was a classmate of Connor's at Springfield College and played Tennis with him over at the Longfellow Tennis Club, in Wayland, where both Evan and Connor taught Tennis. Evan's Tennis Coach, Phil Parrish, introduced the boy's who played Tennis together several times, before they both headed off to Springfield College. May the favorite memories of your son, Connor, carry you through this most difficult time. With our Deepest Sympathy, Lynn, David and Evan Coughlin - (Donation to Springfield College Men's Tennis)

My daughter, Caroline and her friend Sophie, traveled to China with Connor and the Framingham group junior year and they were both saddened to hear of Connor's passing. Caroline was still in touch with Connor and they were talking recently about how much they were enjoying college. Our sincerest condolences to your family.

We had the pleasure of knowing and watching Connor grow into an incredible young man which is a testimony to his parents. Paul truly enjoyed getting to know Connor, often times they spoke of Tennis, Football(aka soccer) and life in general. We send the both of you our deepest sympathies.
