William O'Connor Obituary
Born in Brooklyn, N.Y., he was the son of the late William O'Connor and Louise Fox. He moved to Carbondale, and he was a graduate of Ben Franklin High School. He was employed in the restaurant industry for most of his career.
Bill was a bright and intelligent man. He was an art and history enthusiast who enjoyed reading and had a desire for knowledge. He loved sharing his past experiences and hearing stories of everybody else's adventures. He was also a big animal lover. We will miss him dearly.
He is survived by a daughter, Heather; and grandson, Connor; as well as his extended family and friends at Katrina's Pizza, where he worked and loved spending time.
He was also preceded in death by his brother, Neil Ryan; and his beloved Dog, Crockett.

Who knew that the last time I would see you would be the night you asked me when the new season of Game of Thrones was starting? Who knew that when I said "see you next week" it wouldn't come true? I will miss your company and conversations dearly. I am blessed to have known you, you are greatly missed! Love, Kim
