JASON O'CONNOR Obituary

O'CONNOR, Jason J. Age 53, a lifelong resident of Winthrop, passed away suddenly at his camp in Rockwood, Maine, on April 27, 2019. He was predeceased by his parents Barbara J. (McGrath) and James J. O'Connor of Winthrop. He was the beloved brother of Karen J. Tufts and her husband Charles of Maine, Kathleen H. Vraux and her husband Richard of Maine, James J. O'Connor and his wife Ellen of Billerica and John J. O'Connor, his twin and soulmate, of Winthrop and his loving dog Seamus. He is survived by many loving nephews and nieces. He was an avid outdoorsman with the love of wildlife, fishing, hunting, boating and snowmobiling in the great state of Maine. Going to camp in the Sebago or Moosehead area was often the weekend plans with his brother John! He graduated from Winthrop High School in 1983 and BHCC in 1986 with a degree in Digital Electronics. He started work with the Dept. of Revenue before working as a field tech for Offtech, a copier and printer company, in 1987, eventually becoming Toshiba in 2001. His mischievous smile and gift for gab and great sense of humor will be sorely missed. A Funeral Service will be held from the Maurice W.

Jason and John were two of my best friends growing up. many great memories of summer and winter fun at the camp in Maine. I remember one time Jason was teaching me to ride his dirt bike for the first time, although it didn't turn out well as I stalled out many times, I enjoyed it very much. Brook trout fishing and hunting in the summer and sledding and skating in the winter were unforgettable memories. Their family made me feel like I was part of their family. Very loving parents indeed. One of the nicest families I ever met. I am deeply saddened by this tragic news. Condolences to John and his family from my family and me. Rest in peace my brother Jason. God bless,!
