I am so blessed to have known and loved Con. I have so many wonderful memories and he has influenced my life and the lives of so many in a profound and beautiful way. Thank you Con for your treasured friendship to all of us and your encouragement and leadership to keep growing to become our truest selves. Thank you for the hope you have brought to so many suffering with mental illness. The world is a different place because of you. Thank God for you.

Con brought heaven to earth for so many--he was a gift--a treasure--who will be in our hearts forever.

Con you had a smile that would light up the sky, a way of making the person you spoke to feel valued and special. You showed me how to be a friend, how to embrace life's challenges and the importance of doing my part to make the road easier for others. You have earned a place in heaven by helping bring a little bit of heaven on earth.

I remember Con as a person who put the tip of his wing under mine and many others and led us on to be who we were supposed to be and to pay it forward. There was something angelic in Con and we were all blessed by his crossing our paths. God bless Con now.
