I think of Greg, Becky and family often. Connor was a neat young man whose time came and went way too soon, a real tragedy. I wish I could get up to Presque Isle for my annual visit, but the darn Corona Virus is keeping me down-state, for the moment. I miss all of my friends up there, but hope to be able to travel north when I get the word from Greg.
I will remember Connor and extended family on Wednesday.
God bless all of you.

Sincerely,

Mal

I mentioned a story about Connor staying with us that was a fond memory for us of him wanting a late night snack or mocha shake that he loved for me to make him. But so many other things we will miss and only now does it even seem possible that we will never see him again. I can tell you when he went on trips with us it was never dull or boring. But one time on the way to Scarborough Fair he read from a journal he kept and he showed a real talent for writing and kept us both entertained and amazed at the depth of feeling and insight into others we never knew existed before. He was kind to my wife and myself and respectful when he stayed with us and was a good friend to our son Mark. He will be deeply missed by all who took the time to get to know him. I just wanted to add our heartfelt condolences to all his family and friends who will miss him dearly.

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Having lost Kyle a year ago, I know the heartache that a parent has at the loss of a child. When the wind blows, a song comes on the radio, or you view a gorgeous sunset, you will think of Connor. The memories you share, no matter how painful now, will help to keep him alive in your hearts!

Greg, Rebecca, and Family,

Please accept my deepest condolences. Words cannot express the sorrow I feel, for losing Connor is such a tremendous loss. I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to connect with him on social media for a brief time. It probably seemed a bit strange receiving a message from an old babysitter, but you'd never know it. Connor made everyone feel comfortable. He had the ability to light up a room with his personality. He will never be forgotten.

Sincerely,

Karen Costello Beaulieu

I remember taking Connor, Mark Carvell, Spencer Deschene and myself to the Scarborough Fair. On the way Connor read to us from a Journal he kept and it was fascinating and entertaining and I knew then and said many times that he would probably be a great writer someday. Sometimes when he stayed with us he would get hungry after midnight and he would say to me "Bob I need a Mocha Shake really bad" and I would always say "You need to get to bed really bad" but then I would fix him his Mocha shake anyway. He was unconventional and could try the patience of Job at times, but he was a very loving person and he did have a good heart and was a faithful friend. He will be deeply missed by all of us he left behind. Our sympathies go out to the entire Graves family and especially to Greg, Becky and Jordie who was very close to Connor.

"and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it." and in Connors own words,
he is now "where the grass is much greener". We love you so and will one day join you again. Strength to your family,
