Connor R. Smith

Connor’s life was a testament to resilience, passion, and unwavering commitment to others. Born in New Jersey with an innate talent for sports, Connor excelled in basketball, baseball, and football- the latter being his true passion. Tragically, the untimely loss of his father left a void that led him down a path of ups and downs. Yet, in the heart of St. Paul, Connor found recovery and rediscovered his purpose: helping others navigate their own journeys to healing. His legacy lives on, not only through the lives he touched but also through the second chances granted via his organ donations, embodying his enduring spirit of giving. May we honor Connor’s memory by embracing resilience, compassion, and the profound impact of helping others.

Connor loved the finer things in life, and lived life his way. His contagious laugh, his smile and his huge heart will be missed by all.
