Conrad Joseph Conway

Born in Charleston, West Virginia, in 1934 to Thomas and Reta Conway, Conrad J. Conway peacefully passed away surrounded by his loved ones on April 7, 2025.
Conrad was a proud graduate of the University of Notre Dame, Class of 1957; he was often decked out in his Irish green! He was a veteran of the US Army and a lifelong employee of Borg Warner. Conrad and his high-school sweetheart, Shirley, packed up the kids and moved to Camarillo in 1965, where he was an active member of the communitybe it coaching Roadrunner Football, leading Indian Guides, participating in Toastmasters, or volunteering at Oasis Food Pantry. He was also a lector and parishioner at Saint Mary Magdalen. Conrad always found time for everyone.
Conrad was also lucky to enjoy a long, busy retirement, full of golf, bridge, stock-market watching, and his family. He was the President of the Olivas Mens Golf Club for several terms, and he traveled extensively around the US and abroad with Shirley.
Shirley and Conrad shared almost 75 beautiful years of love, laughter, and unwavering partnership. He leaves behind his beloved Shirley and their five children Cathy (husband Rob), Cindy (fianc Jimmy), Steve (wife Kathleen), Cristy (husband Robert) and Jeff (husband Wally). He was a devoted father and cherished Pops to thirteen grandchildren and five great grandchildren. He also leaves behind his older sister, Mary Alice Gentry of Charleston, West Virginia.
Conrad always had a joke to crack, a crossword puzzle nearby, and an opinion on The Fighting Irish football team! He was devoted to his faith and his family, and was known for his unshakable moral compass. His legacy is one of love, service, humility, and kindness. He was a true gentleman and will be missed greatly by everyone who knew him.
His family would like to extend warm thanks to the Sisters and staff at Mary Health of the Sick, where he was able to spend his final days in a comfortable and faith-filled environment.
A service in Conrads honor will be held on April 24, 2025 at 10:00am at St. Mary Magdalen Church, with a reception to follow at the Hampton Inn at 50 West Daily Drive.
We love you, CJ. Go Irish!
