Bryan Conlon Obituary

Bryan M. "Kato" Conlon, 46, of Union Mills, Indiana, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, April 20, 2024.

He was born on May 29, 1977, in Michigan City, Indiana, and graduated from South Central High School in 1996, where he played football and was a 10 year member in 4-H.

He went on to make his career as a truck driver for 25 years. With his unique and quick sense of humor, there was always something that would come up off the top of his head. He enjoyed animals, golf cart rides, spending time with family and friends, and working on his truck – whether or not it was needed. Bryan was a hard-worker with a loving soul and caring personality who will be deeply missed by all who got the chance to know him.

Bryan is survived by his parents, Thomas and Nancy Conlon; children, Taylor Lawrence and Zachary Conlon; sister, Rachel (Bob) Easton; aunts and uncles, Patricia (Jerry) Patrick, Mark (Patty) Conlon, Julie (Keith) Roberts, Michael Conlon and Lou Ann (David) Millett; nieces, Rebecca Easton and Clara Easton; girlfriend, Cristie Madonia; and many cousins and extended family. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, David and Geraldine Conlon; maternal grandparents, Harold and Phyllis Allen; and cousin, Jennifer Millett Wood.

A visitation will be held on Sunday, April 28, 2024, from 1 to 4 p.m. at Wanatah Funeral Chapel, 309 N. Main Street, Wanatah, Indiana. Additional visitation will be held on Monday, April 29, 2024, from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. with a service beginning at 10 a.m., all at Wanatah Funeral Chapel. Burial to follow at Sacred Heart Cemetery. Memorial donations may be made to the American Diabetes Association.
