Connor Wirth Obituary
Jacksonville, FL - SPC Connor Joseph Wirth, Army Infantry (1992-2025), passed away on January 26th, 2025. His life was marked by service, adventure, and a deep love for those around him.

Among his honors were the Afghanistan Campaign Medal with 2 Campaign Stars, The National Defense Service Medal, The Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, The Army Service Ribbon, the NATO Medal, and an Army Commendation Medal. These accolades reflect his commitment to duty and his contributions to missions of global significance.
Outside his military service, Connor embraced life with a carefree spirit and an adventurous heart. A motorcycle enthusiast, he found joy on the open road and lived each day to its fullest. Those who knew him remember him as a kind soul who brought light and laughter into their lives.
